1. Have you ever stopped to think How God loves you?
It sounds quite incredible, And yet it's true,
Nothing on this earth or in the Heavens above
Is as sure and certain as God's love.

As High As The Sky / SA 49
O it's as high as the sky And it's as deep as the sea,
And it's as wide as the world, God's love for you and for me.
We can't escape his love, Or take ourselves out of his care,
So where could we hide from his love? His love is everywhere.

2. Everything is changing in the world today, There's one thing reliable in every way,
Other things may alter but it's clear and plain
That the love of God is just the same.

Because He Lives / Happiness and Harmony 7
Because he lives I can face tomorrow, Because he lives all fear is gone;
Because I know he holds the future, And life is worth the living
Just because he lives.

Selected verses from the Psalms
The Lord is my light and my salvation; I will fear no
one. The Lord protects me from all danger, I will
never be afraid.
I prayed to the Lord, and he answered me; he freed
me from all my fears.
The oppressed look to him and are glad; they will
never be disappointed.
The helpless call to him and he answers; he saves
them from all their troubles.
His angel guards all who have reverence for the Lord
and rescues them from danger.
Find out for yourself how good the Lord is. Happy are
those who find safety with Him.
Have reverence for the Lord, all His people.
Why am I so sad? Why am I so troubled?
I will put my hope in God, and once again I will praise
him, my saviour and my God.
38
God is our shelter and strength, always ready to
help in times of trouble. So we will not be afraid,
even if the earth is shaken and mountains fall into
the ocean depths.
“Stop fighting”, he says, “and know that I am God,
supreme among the nations, supreme over the
world.”
The Lord almighty is with us; the God of Jacob is
our refuge.
Good News Bible: Psalm 27:1, Psalm 34:4-9a: Psalm 43:5,
Psalm 46:1-2, 10-11

I Believe That God The Father / SA 324
1. I believe that God the Father Can be seen in God the Son,
In the gentleness of Jesus Love for all the world is shown.
Though men crucify their Saviour, And his tenderness rebuff,
God is love, the cross is saying, Calvary is proof enough.
John Gowans

CCLI 56448
2. I believe in transformation, God can change the hearts of men,
And refine the evil nature Till it glows with grace again.
Others may reject the weakling, I believe he can be strong,
To the family of Jesus All God's children may belong.

I Believe That God The Father / SA 324
3. In a world of shifting values, There are standards that remain,
I believe that holy living By God's grace we may attain. All would hear the Holy Spirit
If they listen to his voice, Every Christian may be Christlike
And in liberty rejoice.

4. All the promises of Jesus Are unchanged in every way,
In my yesterdays I proved them, I believe them for today.
Still God gives his willing servant Full equipment for the task;
Power is found by those who seek it, Grace is given to those who ask.

Acts 11:19-30
The Church in Antioch 19Now those who had been scattered by the persecution in connection with Stephen travelled as far as Phoenicia, Cyprus and Antioch, telling the message only to Jews. 20Some of them, however, men from Cyprus and Cyrene, went to Antioch and began to speak to Greeks also, telling them the good news about the Lord Jesus. 21The Lord's hand was with them, and a great number of people believed and turned to the Lord. 22News of this reached the ears of the church at Jerusalem, and they sent Barnabas to Antioch.
23When he arrived and saw the evidence of the grace of God, he was glad and encouraged them all to remain true to the Lord with all their hearts. 24He was a good man, full of the Holy Spirit and faith, and a great number of people were brought to the Lord. 25Then Barnabas went to Tarsus to look for Saul, 26and when he found him, he brought him to Antioch. So for a whole year Barnabas and Saul met with the church and taught great numbers of people. The disciples were called Christians first at Antioch.
Acts 11:19-30
27During this time some prophets came down from Jerusalem to Antioch. 28One of them, named Agabus, stood up and through the Spirit predicted that a severe famine would spread over the entire Roman world. (This happened during the reign of Claudius.) 29The disciples, each according to his ability, decided to provide help for the brothers living in Judea. 30This they did, sending their gift to the elders by Barnabas and Saul.
Acts 11:19-30

'Tis because my blessed Saviour From my sins has ransomed me.
