Theme: Thanksgiving

For Your New Year

With a solemn step and stately
   Draws the old year to a close.
Day by day it has recorded
   Joys and blessings, trials and woes.

Has it wrought in you some progress
   Toward the Father’s blest design
That his work perfected in you
   Should reflect his power divine?

Is faith stronger and hope brighter
   Than it was a year ago?
Does desire for God’s approval
   Burn with fervent steady glow?

Solemn questions, all important,
   Yes, ’tis not with slavish fear
That you face the hidden problems
   Of another opening year.

Not alone you tread life’s pathway,
   Our deliverer walks beside.
Promised guidance, peace and comfort
   To the end he will provide.

Strengthen thus your faith and courage
   And the love that casts out fear.
Then with peaceful expectation
   You will enter your new year.

—Songs of the Nightingale, p. 118

and to Ronald and for this site

[humbleservant]

Yes Freyd, I'll second that.

It's a wonderful forum & well run, I enjoy it very much. It has helped me to draw much closer to the Lord, since I've been a member.

Well done Ronald, & thanks.

Yes, an excellent Forum with freedom of thought, word and appication.

Daily Heavenly Manna

"O bless our God, ye people, and make the voice of His praise to be heard: which holdeth our soul in life, and suffereth not our feet to be moved." Psalm 66:8,9

"THANKS be to God that His grace has preserved us, "kept us from falling," through another year:--that so many of us are still of one heart and of one mind in respect to His Word and its service! When we remember that the Adversary is to be permitted to bring "strong delusions" upon the Lord's people for the very purpose of sifting out all not truly His
(2 Thessalonians 2:10-12), it should surely call forth our thanks to God that the opening of another year finds us still standing fast,--appreciating the Truth, and in full accord with all the divine appointments by which He has kept us from falling." Z.'03-3 R3125:2

Sometimes we get so negative we forget that life is still beautiful and if it weren't for stories like this, we might as well just pack it in.
