No words can tell the joy I feel
Saved from the deepest despair
You answered my heartfelt prayer
My faith was strong, but You took so long
Though I knew that Your time is not mine
And You would come through in the end
.
I thank You, Father, for saving me from misery
For keeping me under Your wing
So that I can continue to sing my words to the world
And remain untainted by my suffering
Renewed in Your strength, Your power
I will find joy in Your service for ever

But when we ask Him for help, Joseph, He is there for us. All we need is faith and trust that His will be done.

Absolutely lovely, Denise. I am always intrigued by the fact that God’s time is not the same as ours. It enables me to pray for people and things that happened years ago!

Yes, John, time has always puzzled me but, no doubt, we will understand one day… I also pray for those passed over from this life.

Thanks so much, Jake. Btw, I love your latest project – I am enjoying it so much. Sorry that time is so scarce but I hope to be back to normal after the month end. I am moving into a slightly larger cottage (from a bed-sitter) with CUPBOARDS!
