| BE-GONE UN-BE-LIEF,
My__ Sav-ior__ is near,
And for my___ re-lief
Will sure-ly___ ap-pear,
By prayer let____ me wres-tle,__
And He will pre-form;
With Christ in__ the ves-sel,__
I smile at__ the storm.
Though dark be my way,
Since He is my Guide,
'Tis mine to obey,
'Tis His to provide;
Though cisterns be broken,
And creatures all fail,
The word He hath spoken
Shall surely prevail.
His love, in time past,
Forbids me to think
He'll leave me at last
In trouble to sink:
Each sweet Ebenezer
I have in review
Confirms His good pleasure
To help me quite through.
Why should I complain
Of want or distress,
Temptation or pain?
He told me no less;
The heirs of salvation,
I know from His Word,
Through much tribulation
Must follow their Lord.
How bitter that cup
No heart can conceive,
Which He drank quite up,
That sinners might live!
His way was much rougher
And darker than mine;
Did Christ, my Lord, suffer,
And shall I repine?
Since all that I meet
Shall work for my good,
The bitter is sweet,
The medicine, food;
Though painful at present,
'Twill cease before long,
And then, oh, how pleasant
The conqueror's song! | | |
| God Desiring Praise in Everything
The Problem
You will find that there are days in which you cannot gather yourself to praise. one day you will find that you cannot utter a praise. On such days you are in pain, total darkness, or dire trouble. On such days you suffer misunderstanding and slander. You are
busy shedding tears of self-pity. You feel that the most obvious response would be complaint rather than praise. You feel that the most obvious thing to do would be to murmur rather than give thanks. At that very moment, you should remember that Jehovah's throne has not changed, His name has not changed, and His glory has not changed.
The Answer:
You should praise Him simply because He is worthy of praise.
You should bless Him simply because He is worthy of all
blessings. At that moment, your praise becomes a sacrifice of
praise. Your praise is like the slaughter of your fattest
calf. Your praise in tears is a sacrifice of praise. You are
wounded before God. You die before God. You suffer loss, and
you sacrifice before God. But you realize that God's throne is
established in the heavens and cannot be shaken, and you do
not hold back your praise. This is the sacrifice of praise.
God desires His children to praise Him in everything and
through every situation.

| Haven't wrote in one month. This helped me just now coinsiding with my last entry:
How can we overcome this feeling of shame? We must deal with
it from two aspects: On the one hand, we have to realize that
when the Lord Jesus was crucified on the cross, he bore our
sins as well as our shame. When our Lord bore our sins, He
suffered great humiliation. Today, in the eyes of God, it is
only proper that we suffer humiliation from men. The
humiliation we suffer before man can never be compared with
the humiliation our Lord suffered on the cross for us.
Therefore, we should not be surprised at humiliation. We
should know that we belong to the Lord.
