I want to open by describing this knife here. This knife has a handle that is attached to this blade. And of course it is designed to cut. What makes the blade effective is two flat sides converging forging this sharp edge. What if you only had one flat side. You could imagine a blade that was in a half-cylinder sort of shape. This would be ineffective. Try to cut a tomato with that?! But as soon as you add another flat side at the perfect angle, you create an effective, razor sharp edge. Now, this blade is an analogy for the ministry of Jesus Christ. Why? Because Jesus Christ embodied a two-sided message. The two halves of his message converged and forged this razor sharp edge that penetrated hearts. You want to know what those two sides are? Grace and truth. John 1:14, And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, and we have seen his glory, glory as of the only Son from the Father, full of grace and truth. We have in this summary sentence, the razor edge that made his ministry effective. Grace and truth in just the right amounts, at just the right angle, forging this gospel blade that penetrates hearts. Let’s think about these two halves were manifest. On the one hand you have GRACE revealed in this compassionate miracle working ability. From all we can piece together it seems that Jesus’ miracles were in the hundreds, perhaps thousands. Hand and cheek, hospitals were going out of business. I could imagine doctors assembling some sort of class action lawsuit against Jesus. When Jesus multiplied the loaves the grocery stores probably started getting a little nervous. Bread and fish sales were definitely down that day. That grace gets better. To be healed by an uncaring physician would still put a smile on your face but to be healed by a loving physician who weeps along with you and writes you a card and comes by your house personally to check up. You’d give that man your soul. You see, this deep miracle working compassion gave Jesus credibility. People were following him and EAGER to hear what this loving, miracle worker had to say. So that’s that’s the grace edge on this side. The razor edge on the other side is the truth. Hard, unbending, razor sharp truth. Just consider some of the words of the sermon on the mount. You must be perfect as your heavenly father is perfect Fear him who has the power to cast body and soul in hell. whoever even looks on a woman to lust after her has committed adultery with her already in his heart When truth meets grace it forms this razor edge able to cut between bone and marrow and reveal the secret thoughts and intent of the heart. Truth without grace does not penetrate. Grace without truth does not penetrate. Application to John 6 John chapter 6 records two consecutive days in the life of Jesus. Day one grace. Day two truth. On the first day you have the compassionate GRACIOUS miracle of the feeding of the 5000. But the next day Jesus speaks demanding words and rigid absolutes creating this sharp edge that penetrates and scatters the crowds. John 6:53, So Jesus said to them, "Truly, truly, I say to you, unless you eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink his blood, you have no life in you. Here was cold, hard, steely truth. And that blade of grace and truth cuts into the center of our heart and says, "If you are seeking me to give you life, you will surely die." That blade hurts. That’s scary. Those are hard words of truth. Chapter 7 Now John chapter 7 is a hinge chapter in the ministry of Jesus. There is a scattering. There is offense, insult, injury. The Jews are determined to kill him. From here on out Jesus is a wanted man. He’s being hunted. They want nothing to do with his blade. We are going to watch the ministry of Jesus shift from a period where he publicly presents himself as Messiah to a period where he prepares himself and his disciples to die. John chapter 7 till the end of the book is Jesus’ march to the cross. Here we go. John 7:1-14, After this Jesus went about in Galilee. He would not go about in Judea, because the Jews were seeking to kill him. 2 Now the Jews’ Feast of Booths was at hand. So we are given a time stamp here. If you remember, John 6 opened by telling us that the passover of the Jews was at hand. Now we are told that it’s the feast of booths. By the way, there are lots of feasts on the Jewish calendar (seven official ones and some bonus ones as well). Those who live in Jerusalem joke about never work because there’s always a feast. So the Feast of Booths (also called the feast of tabernacles) was about six months after the passover mentioned in the feeding of the 5000. But this is far more than just a time stamp. The name of the feast is given to build the tension in the drama. You can hear it. John 7:1-14, After this Jesus went about in Galilee. He would not go about in Judea, because the Jews were seeking to kill him. 2 Now the Jews’ Feast of Booths was at hand. You see the feast of booths is one of the three pilgrimage feasts which meant that if you could, you should travel to Jerusalem, visit the temple, and celebrate the feast in the holy city. This is a setup detail. You see, Jesus was a faithful Jew; everyone would expect him to be there. Has Jesus ever missed a pilgrimage feast? So of course he would be there except for a tiny little problem? The Jews want to kill him and we see next week, this detail was widely known. The text says that Jesus avoided Judea because the Jews wanted to kill him. Judea was the region containing Jerusalem. There were religious thugs in Jerusalem anticipating his next move waiting to ambush him. What should Jesus do? To go or not go. That is the question. Well, his brothers have some advice for him. 3 So his brothers said to him, “Leave here and go to Judea, that your disciples also may see the works you are doing. 4 For no one works in secret if he seeks to be known openly. If you do these things, show yourself to the world.” 5 For not even his brothers believed in him. Now what do you make of this? This is so tough. With just these raw words you can read it two different ways. You could read it, “Jesus, you are wanting to present yourself as Messiah. Well you got to move to the big city and perform.” It’s almost like a music artist that wants to go big. You got to move to Nashville son. You’ve got a lot of potential but you’re in the wrong place if you want this thing to blow up. You aren’t going to be cutting giant labels out in Caldwell. It’s just not going to happen. Jesus, you can do miracles. You’re obviously some kind of supernatural person, but you don’t know how to play the game. If you want to be a person of influence, if you want to be a person of power, if you want to be a public figure, you have to go to the right city. You don’t go to Galilee. You have to go to Jerusalem and caputure the crowds. You have to meet the right people, and you have to develop the right image. So you could read it like an encouragement. And in fact this is how most commentators read this. Show yourselves to the world. But I struggle being convinced based on verse 5. “For not even his brothers believed in him.” We discover in the book of Acts that his family, after seeing him rise from the dead, finally do believe. But they don’t believe here. This makes possible a much more disturbing reading of the text, especially if you factor in the setup sentence informing us as readers of a widely known detail that the Jews want to kill Jesus because he claimed to be both Messiah and God. So certainly his UNBELIEVING brothers knew this death threat existed. Now if that is true, how do you read this encouragement? His unbelieving brothers say, “Go to Jerusalem. Go to the feast, Jesus. Do some tricks there.” Why would they say that if they knew that the death threats existed? Why would they purposely ask him to travel to Jerusalem? I can’t imagine that they are so calloused and so hard that they actually are trying to get him killed. Perhaps, but I doubt it. I think they are trying to test him and get him to sober up to the intensity of his claim. Jesus, you are making some pretty bold assertions. You claim to be God? Bro, we grew up with you. Are you serious? Snap out of it. Jesus we are concerned for you. How long are you going to go on with this stunt? How far are you going to take this? Perhaps they see themselves as doing an intervention of sorts by forcing him to reckon with the implications of his claims. Do you see what you are doing? This is going to lead to your death? You want to claim to be Messiah? Think long and hard where this leads. You know what will happen. Are you ready to take this all the way? They are thinking to themselves, “Maybe if we push him on this, we can shake him out of this Messiah complex.” We can argue for this interpretation further based on how we see his family respond right at the very beginning of his ministry. Large crowds were assembling around Jesus and an emergency family meeting is called. They huddle. They verify the claims he was making. And they rush out to save him from himself. Mark 3:21, And when his family heard it, they went out to seize him, for they were saying, “He is out of his mind.” The mindset of his family is quite simply, Jesus is a lunatic. I think they are looking at him deeply concerned. Jesus, you need to stop this whole thing. You are going to get yourself killed. Wake up. I don’t know how your doing these miracles, but this prank has gone too far. Now look at how Jesus responds. 6 Jesus said to them, "My time has not yet come, but your time is always here. 7 The world cannot hate you, but it hates me because I testify about it that its works are evil. The brothers say, “Show yourself to the world,” and he says, “The world cannot hate you. But it hates me; in fact, it must hate me.” Man this is a brilliant reply. It really is amazing (I suppose I shouldn’t be surprised since it’s God). Let’s consider what’s behind that. The key is to understand this is to look under the hood and get into Jesus’ definition of the word world. In the Bible, the word world is used in a couple different ways. But let me explain how he’s using it here. He’s not talking about the third rock from the sun. He’s not talking about our planet. He’s not talking about the population of the earth. That’s how the brothers used the word just minutes earlier. Show yourself to the world. Show yourself to mankind. Jesus is talking about a system of thinking. He’s talking about what the puritans called worldliness, a system of thought that believes that this WORLD is all their is. The way Jesus uses the word world is almost synonymous with our idea of secularism. The word secular comes from the Latin word saeculum, it simply means a period of time roughly equal to the lifespan of a person. Here’s how you measure a saeculem. You take inventory of the room here. Write down the names of everyone in the building. Then you start your stopwatch. Then after the last one dies, you stop the timer. How exactly that is done is another question. That’s one saeculum. So secularism is literally time-sim, now-ism. The here and now. Secularism or worldliness is a mindset that says, “The here and the now is all that matters and is all that is.” So live long and prosper. Eat, drink and be merry for tomorrow we die. A lot of CHRISTIANS hear that and draw a completely wrong conclusion. They get this messed up in their minds thinking that if you enjoy this world in any way, well, then you are secular and worldly. That’s not it at all. Let me give you and analogy to help. Imagine a scenario where you go to a buffet with a friend. And let’s say your friend for some strange reason has a vision problem where he can’t see anything but the desserts. He’s absolutely starving, but the only choices available to his eyes are ice cream, brownies, candy. So he piles it up. And he eats and of course he’s eventually full but sick to his stomach. And you go in and say, "I love dessert, but it tastes so much better after I’ve eaten a full meal. So you have a nice Caesar Salad, and some turkey and potato slices and then at the end of the meal you get a slice of pie. In this analogy, the dessert bar, is the material world. Being a Christian doesn’t mean you don’t enjoy the world. Of course you do. You can really, really enjoy the gift of God’s creation. In fact, you can enjoy the world far BETTER than an unbeliever because you aren’t looking for the world to fill you. You are already filled and the joys of the world are finishing touches to an already full belly. The unbeliever thinks that his only food options are desserts. The believer sees more of reality. Why would I eat only dessert when I have this giant buffet. The Christian says, “The physical world of time and space is only part of the real world. It’s just the finishing touches. Surrounding the seen is the unseen. Surrounding time is eternity.” So worldliness is a sort of blindness. Now imagine you are the blind guy watching your friend eat a Caesar salad and turkey breast you can’t see. After a while you’d get upset at him. What are you doing? Stop acting like that. He would insist that he’s eating real food. You just can’t see it. And then this sense of offense would begin to set in. What? Do you think you are better than me? Get off your high horse and start being reasonable. This is what Jesus is saying to his brothers. Listen, the world cannot hate you. You’re eyes have not been opened. You can only see this world. You can’t see with the eyes of heaven. That’s why you think I’m crazy. That’s why you are angry. The world can’t hate you because you see things exactly the same way the world sees things. You are going to agree with the world’s assessment of me. Here’s how he answers their specific encouragement to go up to the feast. 8 You go up to the feast. I am not going up to this feast, for my time has not yet fully come." 9 After saying this, he remained in Galilee. 10 But after his brothers had gone up to the feast, then he also went up, not publicly but in private. Now there’s some rich theology going on here and we’ll miss it if we glance over this. Worse, yet, you might conclude that Jesus here is being duplicitous. How would you feel if someone said this to you? Jesus RSVP’d and replied “no” and then he shows up anyway. Not cool, right. Well, there’s more going on and you need a little insight into the original Greek language in which the NT was written. So here’s a little Greek lesson here. In the original Greek there are many words for time. Here are three significant ones. ώρα (hora) His hour had not yet come Refers to a specific moment. In the book of John, it always refers to his crucifixion. χρόνος (chronos) Always focuses on the extent of time, not a point of time John 5:6; 7:33; 12:35; 14:9. (ie. the lame man had been there a long time). καιρός (kairos) Unlike chronos but like hōra, it refers to a point of time, but does not refer to crucifixion. Now let’s look at the verse again. Which Greek word do you suppose is being mentioned here? 8 You go up to the feast. I am not going up to this feast, for my time has not yet fully come." 9 After saying this, he remained in Galilee. 10 But after his brothers had gone up to the feast, then he also went up, not publicly but in private. Let’s think? It sounds like he might be referencing his crucifixion. So in that case it would be hora. But does that make sense in the context? “I can’t go to the feast because my HORA (my hour for crucifixion) has not come. That would imply that he was waiting for permission to travel to Jerusalem to die.” But then as we read in chapter 7, presumably he is permitted to go and he isn’t crucified." Well it turns out the Greek word isn’t hora. It’s kairos which speaks to a specific moment of time; but a specific moment that is NOT is crucifixion. The point Jesus is making is that he has a connection to the father. He can’t do his own will. Neither can he do his brother’s will. He is being led by the Father. Jesus cannot just go up to Jerusalem because his brothers tell him to. Jesus is under special constraints. He has to wait until the father tells him it is the right time. He’s operating in another world they have no knowledge of. The moment of time where the father leads me has not yet come. But your time is always here. In other words, your moment to receive the father is now. Your time is now. Your moment to is always here. Every moment you wait makes it more difficult. When is the best time to accept Jesus Christ? Now. And if you wait a day what will the answer be? Now. It would have been better yesterday but since yesterday is gone, the best time now is now. Your time is always here. Application That’s as far as we are going today. Now it’s time for us to interact with the blade of this text. It’s one thing for that blade to cut through the Jewish people of Jesus’ day 2000 years ago. It’s another thing entirely when that blade comes at us. We discover the blade hasn’t dulled. It is just as sharp, hard and threatening. And the reason the blade threatens is because it cuts and slices at the things we treasure most. But we can’t be saved without it. We need that open heart surgery. We need the blade of truth to cut out the cancer that’s killing us. Nobody wants it. Everyone needs it. So here’s the question. Are you worldly? Would Jesus look at you and say, “The world cannot hate you, because you are of the world.” Are you living for now-ism. What do you want? What is your bread? What is your drink? What do you think will make you happy? Maybe you want to see economic growth in your life. Why? Why do you want economic growth in your life? If the answer is so that you can spend it on pursuits in this life only then you are a secularist. You are living a worldly life. That’s nowism. It’s not intended to offend. It’s the definition. It’s not wrong to use your money for this world, in the same way it’s not wrong to have dessert. But what’s the meal? What’s the main point? The secular mind looks for the meal only in the hear and now. It’s grasping for life in the hear and now. What Jesus is saying in this passage is that if you want eternal life, your going to have to let that go. Picture a man dangling over a cliff hanging on to a rope. That man is you. You are holding onto something that you believe will save you. You believe if you let go of the rope you will die. That rope might be money. It might be beauty. It might be family, respect, career, athletic accomplishments, success of my children, art, whatever. And Jesus says, you look like you are struggling. I’ve got a blade here. Can I cut that rope and give you everlasting life? And you scream. No. This world is all their is. I can’t let you do that. If you cut the rope I’ll perish! Jesus looks at you and say, child, you can’t have life until I cut the rope. Can I take my blade and cut the rope? Jesus comes with the blade of grace and truth in order to save. He came with grace and truth in order to make peace. Think beyond the now. Don’t be a secularist who lives only for this world. Hope for things outside this world, beyond this world. A great metaphor for a secularist is a child. Why? Because a child is always wanting to blow all his resources in the moment. Parents are expending great amounts of energy to redirect the impulses of their children. Listen I know you want to go to Big Als with your friends. But that place is expensive. If you spend all your money like that you won’t have any money later when you want to buy something. And what do kids say? “I don’t care.” Listen, if you eat that snickers bar now you won’t be hungry for dinner. “I don’t care.” I want it Now! I’m unfulfilled. I have my desires. I can’t be happy until I get what I want. From God’s perspective he looks at the sweaty faces of men on wall street, the greedy real-estate markets, the bitcoin markets, he looks at the vanity of the makeup and beauty products and clothing markets, he looks at the athletic markets and he says this is childishness. This is cosmic childishness. How are you living? Is the now everything to you? If now is everything to you, you will certainly perish. You will not inherit the kingdom of God. You are spiritually blind and you are lost in your sins. Let’s say you walk outside and you get a $100. What goes through your mind. I want to consume that on the hear and now. Do you realize that investment has no eternal value? Or is your thought, I want to invest this in something that lasts forever? What lasts forever? People last forever. Do you help alleviate suffering in their life, teach them the word of God, share the gospel so that they can be in heaven for eternity? God is coming at all of us with his blade. You know what he’s saying to all of us right now, “Grow up.” Now is the time. It’s always your time. And you shield yourself from that blade. “I don’t care. I want it Now! I have my urges. I have my needs.” Let’s end where we started. You are going to have to let the grace/truth blade cut out of your heart the thing you think will give you life. **All worldly people believe they have an answer to the question, “What is the good life?** What is the thing that will give me life?” Listen closely. Do you realize that right now counts forever. The secularist says, right not counts for now. Not true. Right now counts forever. Right now you can invest and reap rewards that last for eternity or you can live in such a way that the resources of the moment are consumed in a moment. It changes the way you look at everything. Don’t you want to look back on your life from the vantage point of eternity and say, “I didn’t take the easy path. I didn’t live for the pleasures of the world.” The problems of life will all one day be over. Right? So you are little uncomfortable in the moment. Who cares. Eternity is coming. Don’t you want to look back and say, “I ran hard. I finished the race investing in people. I ran the race and my life counted.” Am I a soldier of the Cross— A follower of the Lamb? And shall I fear to own His cause, Or blush to speak His name? In the name, the precious name, Of Him who died for me, Through grace I’ll win the promised crown, Whate’er my cross may be. Must I be carried to the skies On flowery beds of ease, While others fought to win the prize And sailed through bloody seas? Are there no foes for me to face? Must I not stem the flood? Is this vile world a friend to grace, To help me on to God? Since I must fight if I would reign, Increase my courage, Lord! I’ll bear the toil, endure the pain, Supported by Thy Word. I want the light of eternity to scrutinize my current actions and I want it to stand up under that kind of inspection. Guys what if we lived this way? Let’s do it. Let’s live for eternity.

Scripture teaches that God governs and ordains all things that come to pass. This truth is typically presented in the Bible to instruct and encourage God's people. Yet Christians tend to think little about God's providence. Zack and Alex discuss this topic along with the hymn “Whate'er My God Ordains is Right.”

In today's episode - My Father's Care Circles Me - Doug Cripe tells us about his current favourite hymn: Whate're My God Ordains is right. A song for the moment. And along the way he tells us about how he ended up in Switzerland, his work with the WMO, and the way he first learnt this song - singing it with 18 other worship leaders. All that in just 6 minutes! Here's the link to the hymn: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F7H4qwj5rpo  

The success story of your business starts with the level of trust that you build with your customers.  When your customers like and trust you, they are more likely to buy from you. Often, they will also recommend you to other people.  Just imagine when that happens – high conversion leading to more sales. But how do you earn the trust of your audience? How do you keep them engaged? We all need to start somewhere, and by this, you must take your SEO game seriously. There are THREE skills to master in order to win, and they will be uncovered in this episode. Today, Stephan Spencer and I continue to talk about E.A.T in SEO – what E.A.T is, how to check if a website has E.A.T, and how to use it when creating content and links to grow your business, and not just when buying a business.

This legend will definitely blow your mind with all the tips and tricks you need to know when it comes to growing your business through the art of SEO.   Why Understanding E.A.T in SEO & Life Is A Game Changer Adding Value to Your Content What Citation Flow Metric is It is a metric from Majestic SEO that is an approximation of page rank of Google's original PageRank Algorithm. Give Value First! Stephan emphasizes that if you aren't thinking like an ad agency creative director with the content pieces that you're coming up with, you're missing out and not going to get much traction. You don't do content just to manipulate or to get something in return. If you play your cards right in terms of it not using manipulative tactics and you're just trying to add value, you're going to get value out of it in return. What E.A.T is and Why It is Substantial E.A.T stands for Expertise, Trustworthiness, and Authoritativeness. Trustworthiness It comes from high-value links, high-trust links that are originating from high-trust pages on high-trust websites. Authoritativeness When you have been cited by other industry sources, regardless if they are high-trust sources, then you are building authority in your niche. This makes your site valuable. Expertise Manifesting that you are an expert in your field is very important. If you are not a pro, then bring on experts in your field, with diplomas or certifications, to contribute to your site. Having E.A.T vs. Not Having E.A.T As Stephan states the difference, he highlights the importance of authentic TESTIMONIALS. The Business Karma Stephan shares how building trust and authority can take you to such great heights, and this can be manifested by testimonials from people who you added value to. Jaryd sums it all up with a gold nugget: “Just give as long as you're giving with the right intention. It's going to come back. It may not be specifically from that person or a link from them, but it will come back.” To connect with Stephan, visit his Website or through Email, Twitter, LinkedIn, and YouTube channel.   Resources If you want to be an expert at doing your due diligence, we’ve got the right resources for you and they’re totally FREE!

Order of Service: - Prelude - Hymn 187 - Our Father, By Whose Name - Genesis 2: 18 & 21-25: And the LORD God said, “It is not good that man should be alone; I will make him a helper comparable to him.” …. And the LORD God caused a deep sleep to fall on Adam, and he slept; and He took one of his ribs, and closed up the flesh in its place. Then the rib which the LORD God had taken from man He made into a woman, and He brought her to the man. And Adam said: “This is now bone of my bones And flesh of my flesh; She shall be called Woman, Because she was taken out of Man.” Therefore a man shall leave his father and mother and be joined to his wife, and they shall become one flesh. And they were both naked, the man and his wife, and were not ashamed. - Devotion - Prayer - Hymn 190 - O Blest the House, Whate'er Befall - Blessing - Postlude Service Participants: Rev. Dr. Doyle Holbird (Preacher), Paul Gullixson (Organist)

In Hebrews 11:1, we read that “faith is the assurance of things hoped for and the conviction of things not seen.” The prophet Jeremiah held to his faith, convinced that the words of future judgment on Jerusalem were the true Word of God. The trouble was, there were so many other voices at the time that were giving a false testimony about God and a false hope to the people. Jeremiah teaches us that holding on to the Truth leads us to a conviction that is first believed, and then seen.   After the sermon, Soprano Barbara Yatrousis sings "O Savior, Hear Me.": Oh Saviour hear me, I implore thee,  In thee alone can peace be found, Thou canst sustain and thou restore me Whate'er the cares that hover round. Hear my supplication. O turn on me thy loving eyes; Lord I long for thy salvation, And would feign attain the prize. When cares of earth to me seem heavy Heart-sore I seek of thee relief, Thy grace remaineth ever ready To soothe my pain, to assuage my grief. Hear my supplication. O turn on me thy loving eyes; Lord I long for thy salvation, And would feign attain the prize.

Sandra McCracken shares how she writes and leads modern hymns in the church. Songs Covered: "Steadfast" "Come Light Our Hearts" "Whate’er My God Ordains Is Right" "We Will Feast in the House of Zion" Quotes: "When we practice silence in this biblical way, we understand that the Lord is gracious with us, that Jesus is not there just to expose the things that are painful in our hearts, but he wants it to be opened up so he can heal us. Where there’s honest lament in this biblical way, there’s also an opportunity for that to be healed so that the tears are fruitful and our lament is not self-absorption or just wallowing in things. But moving through the sorrows and places brokenness and on to the other side. That’s what worship is designed to do—it’s to realign our hearts toward wholeness." "Silence makes way for lament, and lament is like a passage—it’s not a destination, it’s not the state we were meant for. Lament is what we do in the passage between now and the full restoration that God has planned and is committed to." "It’s so ordinary—we put charts together for a service, we plan things, we start at the wrong tempo, or someone gets sick that morning and can’t show up. All the logistics are happening, but if you zoom out you realize it's a miraculous thing that we get to be part of this, that we get to participate in the receiving and the giving of God’s comfort by way of song." "The doctrine of God’s providence in our lives was not given to us to be a theological debate. It was given to us as a comfort. The idea that God is sovereign is not meant to make you mad; it’s meant to help you know you are held and that God is not surprised by the devastation that happens in our world and in our lives."

Order of Service: - Prelude - Hymn 190 - O Blest the House, Whate'er Befall: vv. 1-3 - 1 John 4: 16-19: And so we know and rely on the love God has for us. God is love. Whoever lives in love lives in God, and God in him. In this way, love is made complete among us so that we will have confidence on the day of judgment, because in this world we are like him. There is no fear in love. But perfect love drives out fear, because fear has to do with punishment. The one who fears is not made perfect in love. We love because he first loved us. - Devotion: What is this thing called 'Love'? - Prayer - Hymn 190 - O Blest the House, Whate'er Befall: vv. 4 & 5 - Blessing - Postlude Service Participants: Rev. Pres. Gaylin Schmeling, Seminary (Preacher), Rev. Prof. Mark Degarmeaux (Organist)

He Leadeth Me with All the Way My Savior Leads Me He Leadth Me He leadeth me, O blessed thought!
O words with heav’nly comfort fraught! Whate’er I do, where’er I be
Still ’tis God’s hand that leadeth me. Refrain He leadeth me, He leadeth me,
By His own hand He leadeth me; His faithful follower I would be,
For by His hand He leadeth me. Sometimes mid scenes of deepest gloom,
Sometimes where Eden’s bowers bloom, By waters still, over troubled sea,
Still ’tis His hand that leadeth me. Lord, I would place my hand in Thine,
Nor ever murmur nor repine; Content, whatever lot I see,
Since ’tis my God that leadeth me. And when my task on earth is done,
When by Thy grace the vict’ry’s won, E’en death’s cold wave I will not flee,
Since God through Jordan leadeth me. All the Way My Saviour Leads Me 1. All the way my Savior leads me,
What have I to ask beside? Can I doubt His tender mercy,
Who through life has been my Guide? Heav’nly peace, divinest comfort,
Here by faith in Him to dwell! For I know, whate’er befall me,
Jesus doeth all things well; For I know, whate’er befall me,
Jesus doeth all things well. 2. All the way my Savior leads me,
Cheers each winding path I tread, Gives me grace for every trial,
Feeds me with the living Bread. Though my weary steps may falter
And my soul athirst may be, Gushing from the Rock before me,
Lo! A spring of joy I see; Gushing from the Rock before me,
Lo! A spring of joy I see. 3. All the way my Savior leads me,
Oh, the fullness of His love! Perfect rest to me is promised
In my Father’s house above. When my spirit, clothed immortal,
Wings its flight to realms of day, This my song through endless ages:
Jesus led me all the way; This my song through endless ages:
Jesus led me all the way.

So shall I live, supposing thou art true, Like a deceived husband; so love’s face May still seem love to me, though altered new; Thy looks with me, thy heart in other place: For there can live no hatred in thine eye, Therefore in that I cannot know thy change. In many’s looks, the false heart’s history Is writ in moods, and frowns, and wrinkles strange. But heaven in thy creation did decree That in thy face sweet love should ever dwell; Whate’er thy thoughts, or thy heart’s workings be, Thy looks should nothing thence, but sweetness tell. How like Eve’s apple doth thy beauty grow, If thy sweet virtue answer not thy show! William Shakespeare Presenters Mark Chatterley Thierry Heles The post Sonnet 093: So shall I live, supposing thou art true appeared first on In Ear Entertainment.

Wordsworth read by Classic Poetry Aloud: http://www.classicpoetryaloud.com/ Giving voice to the poetry of the past. --------------------------------------------- The Reaper by William Wordsworth (1770 – 1850) Behold her, single in the field, Yon solitary Highland Lass! Reaping and singing by herself;— Stop here, or gently pass! Alone she cuts and binds the grain, And sings a melancholy strain; O listen! for a vale profound Is overflowing with the sound. No nightingale did ever chant More welcome notes to weary bands Of travellers in some shady haunt Among Arabian sands; No sweeter voice was ever heard In springtime from the cuckoo-bird, Breaking the silence of the seas Among the farthest Hebrides. Will no one tell me what she sings?— Perhaps the plaintive numbers flow For old, unhappy, far-off things, And battles long ago, Or is it some more humble lay, Familiar matter of to-day? Some natural sorrow, loss, or pain, That has been, and may be again! Whate’er the theme, the maiden sang As if her song could have no ending; I saw her singing at her work, And o’er the sickle bending;— I listen’d till I had my fill; And, as I mounted up the hill, The music in my heart I bore Long after it was heard no more.
