He Giveth More Grace |
He giveth more grace as our burdens grow greater,
He sendeth more strength as our labors increase; To added afflictions He addeth His mercy, To multiplied trials he multiplies peace. When we have exhausted our store of endurance, When our strength has failed ere the day is half done, When we reach the end of our hoarded resources Our Father’s full giving is only begun. His love has no limits, His grace has no measure, His power no boundary known unto men; For out of His infinite riches in Jesus He giveth, and giveth, and giveth again. ~~ By Annie J. Flint (1866-1932) ~~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ A Little Note from Cobblestone Road: The author of the poem, Annie Johnson Flint, suffered with arthritis for 40 years. But that terrible affliction did not embitter her. And out of the crucible of her suffering came a new and beautiful understanding of the meaning of guidance expressed in these lovely words: "He giveth more grace" The Lord Jesus said in Matthew 11:30: For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light. Hebrews 4:15-16 says: For we have not an high priest which cannot be touched with the feeling of our infirmities; but was in all points tempted like as we are, yet without sin. Let us therefore come boldly unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need. When the burdens are too much to bear, we should have given them to Jesus all along. The Lord gives us grace for every hour. We can bring all of our requests to the Lord and we know that He hears our prayers and will answer us. He will give us grace and He will sustain us. Our help comes from the Lord. He is our Strength for every day. Give your burdens to the Lord. Praise the name of Jesus! Psalm 63:7 Because thou hast been my help, therefore in the shadow of thy wings will I rejoice.
