Rom 8:38 For I am persuaded, that neither death,

nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers,nor things present, nor things to come,

love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.

Nearer To Thee

Nearer, my God, to Thee, nearer to Thee!E'en though it be a cross that raiseth me;Still all my song would be nearer, my God, to

Thee,Nearer, my God, to Thee, nearer to Thee!

Though like the wanderer, the sun gone down,

Darkness be over me, my rest a stone;Yet in my dreams I'd be nearer, my God, to Thee,Nearer, my God, to Thee, nearer to Thee!

Story of Young Wife & Mother

The Father's presence encircled Christ, and nothingbefell Him but that which infinite love permitted for theblessing of the world. Here was His source of comfort,and it is for us. He who is imbued with the Spirit of

Christ abides in Christ. The blow that is aimed at himfalls upon the Saviour, who surrounds him with Hispresence. Whatever comes to him comes from Christ.He has no need to resist evil, for Christ is his defense.Nothing can touch him except by our Lord's

permission, and "all things" that are permitted "worktogether for good to them that love God." Romans8:28. {MB 71.2}

Hymn: It is Well with My Soul

Though Satan should buffet, though trials should come,Let this blest assurance control,That Christ has regarded my helpless estate,And hath shed His own blood for my soul.

Pruning

-"It is because God is leading them that these thingscome upon them. Trials and obstacles are the Lord'schosen methods of discipline and His appointedconditions of success. ... He sees that some have powers

and susceptibilities which, rightly directed, might be usedin the advancement of His work. In His providence Hebrings these persons into different positions and variedcircumstances that they may discover in their characterthe defects which have been concealed from their own

knowledge. He gives them opportunity to correct thesedefects and to fit themselves for His service. Often Hepermits the fires of affliction to assail them that they maybe purified." {MH 471.1}
