While reading Psalms 37:23-31 which reads: "The steps of a man are established by the LORD, when he delights in his way; though he fall, he shall not be cast headlong, for the LORD upholds his hand. I have been young, and now am old, yet I have not seen the righteous forsaken or his children begging for bread. He is ever lending generously, and his children become a blessing. Turn away from evil and do good; so shall you dwell forever. For the LORD loves justice; he will not forsake his saints. They are preserved forever, but the children of the wicked shall be cut off. The righteous shall inherit the land and dwell upon it forever. The mouth of the righteous utters wisdom, and his tongue speaks justice. The law of his God is in his heart; his steps do not slip", these words came to mind:
The Son arose for me this morn
And by His Spirit I am warmed,
And made to feel His presence near,
As He Is all my Hope and Fear!
He lendeth us His precious thoughts
That we may tell of all He's wrought.
He Is our Portion and our Bread,
To walk with Him, Who in our stead
Established all our work of grace
That faithful we may run our race,
Delighting Him with all our heart,
Through Christ alone we'll not depart!
