Let's share a testimony of praise and thanks daily

Was it the nails O Saviour,
That bound Thee to the tree?
Nay, ’twas Thine everlasting love, :love:
Thy love for me, for me.


Oh, make me understand it,
Help me to take it in,
What it meant to Thee, the Holy One,
To bear away my sin


Then melt my heart, O Saviour,
Bend me, yea, break me down,
Until I own Thee Conqueror,
And Lord and Sov’reign crown.

:love::love::love:



From the hymn Give me a Sight O Saviour......K Kelly
 
Sing joyfully to the Lord , you righteous; it is fitting for the upright to praise him.
Praise the Lord with the harp;
make music to him on the ten-stringed lyre.
Sing to him a new song; play skillfully, and shout for joy.
For the word of the Lord is right and true; he is faithful in all he does.
The Lord loves righteousness and justice; the earth is full of his unfailing love.

Psalms 33:1‭-‬5 NIV
 
This is the day that the Lord hath made, let us rejoice and be glad in it. \o/

It is raining heavy! The pollution in the air, pollen, dust etc is falling to the ground, the air we breath is being made clean again.

It is very cloudy and dull, that is just a reflection of the world on a good day, light always shines in darkness.

There is always some good in what we often feel is bad.

If we can praise the Lord when we are down, how much more can we praise him when we are up. \o/

Romans 8:28-31 (NKJV)
28 And we know that all things work together for good to those who love God, to those who are the called according to His purpose.
29 For whom He foreknew, He also predestined to be conformed to the image of His Son, that He might be the firstborn among many brethren.
30 Moreover whom He predestined, these He also called; whom He called, these He also justified; and whom He justified, these He also glorified.
31 What then shall we say to these things? If God is for us, who can be against us?
 
Greetings dear brothers and sisters in Jesus Christ our Lord

Sharing the beautiful words of a hymn that is on my heart this morning.

Alas! and did my Saviour bleed?
And did my Sovereign die,
Would He devote that sacred head
For such a worm as I?

Was it for sins that I had done
He groaned upon the tree?
Amazing pity! grace unknown!
And love beyond degree!


Well might the sun in darkness hide,
And shut his glories in,
When the incarnate Maker died
For man, His creature’s sin.

Thus might I hide my blushing face
While His dear cross appears
Dissolve my heart in thankfulness,
And melt mine eyes to tears.

But drops of grief can ne’er repay
The debt of love I owe;
Here Lord, I give myself away:
’Tis all that I can do.


Isaac Watts 1707

 
I would like to give praise to the mighty God, its a delight to worship him, and be in obedience to his desires. i also give thanks for the blessings he has bestowed on me, including the one next door. I have spent the past 18 months solely in the wilderness focusing on the lord, it has been carthatic to say the least.
 
I am thankful for the beautiful day today, and the trip to the library for more books, and the deadening of the huge grass clumps from putting down tarps close to my garden.
 
I thank God for my faith, it's all up to me from here. For me, I found this out from the Bible. The scriptures tell me that when I was saved, God gave me a share of faith. I don't produce it, He gives it to me freely! But, from there, it is up to me to grow it through reading and hearing the word of God. No one ever preached this, no one told me and I am 72 years old! The way I learned was , after God gave me the thirst, the Bible told me.
it's all there, read it yourself!
Some one said it is "Human is to error!"...I say, it is very human to doubt and nothing in this life of ours is more erroneous than doubt. GOD is the epitome of truth and being positive.
I am saved, I have faith and I sin in many ways, and one of them is doubt about all of this. Like the old slave hymn, "Amazing Grace", when the devil and doubt creep in, I just go back to the day I was first saved and my faith and belief flood in , satin and doubt vanish...thanks be to God!
 
Thank You Lord for my infirmaries, for in my weakness, You are made strong in me. Thank You for the path you put before me though I know not where it leads. Thank You for the many blessings You give us, though I often dwell too often on the troubles. And thank You Lord for my partner, my wife and my friend and the warm house I share with her.
 
New location but still the same Praise to our Heavenly Father!!!
Thank-you my God for doing so much for me & my family during these trying times.
For always being there!
Thank-you for bringing my Son home safe and sound!
Thank-you for all things in the name of Your Son Jesus Amen!
 
The Lord blessed me with a lot of good things today, and I am very thankful. The herbs I have planted for healing of the body have sprung up recently, and it seems to be a banner year for them. I was able to weed my strawberry patch, weed the raised beds that have been so successful this year, open up and spread about 8 bags of mulch (and weeded the area first before spreading the mulch), and plant a grape vine. And also checked up on the pumpkins I planted and the rhubarb, they are all doing well. The rhubarb is several years old but has done poorly past years, tried a new method this year and its doing much better. I made some final measurements to build a handrail for my sister from her garage to her kitchen. and also made it to the library with my wife and got a few treasures. All this in one day. Thank You Lord in all things, but I must say, I gotta love the good things better than the hard things that produce patience. LOL. Thank You Lord, You are greatly to be praised!
