God is Great

i have been reading a book to the children called

Living Hymn Stories by Wilbur Konkel

and i wanted to share this passage

from the book...

"Every good and every perfect gift is from above,

and cometh down from the Father of Lights,

with whom is no variableness, neither shadow of

turning." (James 1:17). God is faithful. He does

not fail. His compassion they fail not. He cares

for the lilies. He cares for the sparrows. How

can He fail me? How can he forget you? You

are of more value than many flowers or birds. He

will not. He cannot, forget you. He has graven

you on the palms of His hands. He was wounded

for your transgressions. Like His great universe,

He is always here. After the darkest night, the sun

comes up with its rosy splendor and warms and

brightens all it reaches. So God is always there in

your darkest hour. He does not turn away from

you. Not even by a faint shadow. As Thou hast

been, Thour forever wilt be. Because He is our

Father, and because He suffered so much for

us, yes, He even died for us, therefore His

compassions will never fail. He has loved us with

and everlasting love.
