God is Sovereign


Please say a prayer for our kids today.

Warren & Liane received some sad news yesterday, a day that started out with much anticipation and excitement.

But we know God is sovereign and we rest in that.

Their little one is with Him now, safe...running and playing with siblings and
a little cousin who arrived not so long ago.

I'm picturing my dad with his arms full...
oh how he loveds little ones

It's a beautiful picture when you ponder...

There's a song our kids have often done during worship -
it's become one of my favourites and comes
to mind again (thinking of the first few words)

My Saviour My God
I am not skilled to understand
What God has willed, what God has planned

I only know at His right hand
Stands one who is my Saviour

I take Him at His word and deed
Christ died to save me; this I read
And in my heart I find a need

Of Him to be my savior

That He would leave His place on high

And come for sinful man to die
You count it strange, so once did I
Before I knew my Saviour


Chorus

My Saviour loves, My Saviour lives
My Saviour's always there for me

My God: He was, my God; He is
My God is always gonna be


Yes, living, dying, let me bring

My strength, my solace from this spring;
That He who lives to be my King
Once died to be my Saviour


That He would leave His place on high

And come for sinful man to die

You count it strange, so once did I
Before I knew my Saviour!


... remembering all our little ones

I am so sorry for you and your children. . .it must be so heart breaking for you all.
I love that song. . it speaks of the feelings we so often have when we don't understand.

Someday. . we'll meet our little ones that we never really had a chance to love and hold. . there is such hope in that.
