My Family

My Family

Psalm 139:13-16

13 For thou hast possessed my reins:thou hast covered me in my mother's womb.14 I will praise thee;for I am fearfully and wonderfully made:marvellous are thy works;and that my soul knoweth right well.15 My substance was not hid from thee,when I was made in secret,and curiously wrought in the lowest parts of the earth.16 Thine eyes did see my substance,yet being unperfect;and in thy book all my members were written,which in continuance were fashioned,when as yet there was none of them.

Trouble

" Trouble is a strange thing.It arrives in dark robes of despair and uncertainty,and not until it is already behind us do we recognize that our unwelcome intruder has been God's love and mercy in disguise.How often the Lord uses difficulty to give us"the best" in place of "the good."
Jessie Rice Sandberg
