Hymn - Trust and Obey

Greetings dear and precious sisters-in-Christ,

I hope that the "Dog days of summer" are treating you well.

I listened to a sermon last Sunday and it is going through my mind. A question was asked, "do you trust the Lord when you ask that He answers?" I began to question myself about really trusting Him when I ask or listen.

This morining I was reminded that I have an hymnal and one of the songs, Trust and Obey, written by John H Sammis and Daniel B. Towner a long, long, time ago still stands as Truth today.

1) When we walk with the Lord In the Light of His Word, What a glory He sheds on our way! While we do His good will He abides with us still, And with all who will trust and obey.

2) Not a shadow can rise, Not a cloud in the skies, But His smile quickly drives it away; Not a doubt nor a fear, Not a sigh nor a tear, Can abide while we trust and obey.

3) Not a burden we bear, Not a sorrow we share, But our toil He doth richly repay; Not a grief or a loss, Not a frown nor a cross, But is Blest if we trust and obey.

4) But we never can prove The delights of His love Until all on the altar we lay, For the favor He shows And the joy He bestows Are for them who will trust and obey.

5) Then in fellowship sweet We will sit at His feet, Or we'll walk by His side in the way; What He says we will do, Where He sends we will go- Never fear, only trust and obey.

CHORUS: Trust and obey For there's no other way To be happy in Jesus But to trust and obey.

Today I do chose to Trust Him!!!

Abba Father, how rich is Mercy, how marvelous in Beauty, Praise and Glory to thee. Lord I pray for each dear and precious sister-in-Christ that she would "be still and know" that in whatever and wherever and whoever You can be trusted and in the trusting Your Peace which passes all understanding imbeds in her heart and mind and soul so deep that she boldly proclaims, "in my God I will trust and obey for there is no other way to be happy in Jesus but to trust and obey." In Jesus Name I pray, Amen.

Trusting and Still Trusting,
