[Songs in the Night - May 4]
For this God is our God for ever and ever: he will be our guide even unto death. Psalm 48:14
IT IS for us to look for the Lord's providences in
our affairs at this time, and to find them guiding us,
sheltering us from the heat of persecution and tribulation
and trial, and again at other times enlightening
us, refreshing us in the dark seasons.
And this leading
of divine providence is intended to be ours so long
as we are of the true Israel of God, until we pass over
Jordan into the heavenly Canaan and need such special
providences no further.
Blessed are those whose
faith is awake and on the alert, and who discern the
Lord's favors which the world will not discern, and
which only those in the right attitude of mind can
appreciate. Z'07-155 R3997:3 (Hymn 87)
