How Great Is Our God!

I have found that He is able to take the deepest sorrows--even those that cause the bones to ache--and to fill them to overflowing with His joy. "My joy I have given to you that your joy might be full." "My cup runs over." How great is our God!

I have found that in my fearful hesitations as I struggle to take one step further that He has come and encouraged my heart. "Only be strong and very courageous!. Every place that your foot will tread, I have given you the victory." He has been into my tomorrows and drawing a line through my fears, He has written instead "more than conquer through Me and the power of my love for him." How great is our God!

I have seen Him take the worst of evils and turn them into the greatest good. And not just for me, but for those who have done the evil. "Because," He says, "I know that you love them." "And because," He reminds me, "I love them too." How great is our God!

I have found that as I stand and watch the enemy "triumph," He has put into my heart a song--no, the song, accompanied by the stringed instruments of the Spirit's lyre: "Yet, I will rejoice in the God of my salvation. He has given me the feet of the deer that I might prance on the highest mountains." How great is our God!

I have found that as I pant in thirst for a sense of His presence that the springs of living water that He has placed in my heart assuages my deepest thirst and fills me with His presence and His peace--beyond my comprehension. How great is our God!

I have found that in my deepest need that He has opened wide the storehouse of His "riches in glory" and poured out not just enough, but "more than I could ask or think." How great is our God!

"O Lord, our Lord, how majestic is Your Name in all the earth.!!!"
