Flawless Outpouring...
Heb.11:6And without faith it is impossible to please God,because anyone who comes to him must believe that he existsand that he rewards those who earnestly seek him.
What terrible misconceptions we believe,what deadly mistakes we makewithout faith...
'Wow', I commented the other day'even in the thick of sorrowother cares don't take a holiday!!'
Aren't you thankful God invites us to cast our care on Him because He cares for us?!!
1 Pet.5:7Humble yourselves, therefore, under God’s mighty hand, so that in due time He may exalt you. Cast all your anxiety on Him, because He cares for you.
Ps.55:22Cast your burden on the Lord,And He shall sustain you;He shall never permit the righteous to be []moved.
Even in the thick of sorrowCreature care still finds its wayWe are not made for tomorrowGod is faithful...for Today
Like a song flawlessly outpouredThe heavens declare, loud and clearThe glory of our loving Lord...
Not by goodness and grace devoidGod’s evidence shouts loud and clearTo keep Hope’s Creature overjoyedThough Teacher vexes faith’s veneer
Where often sterling Wish is triedLest Want protects pride’s stumbling blocksLest Self is not humbly deniedLest sight, not faith is how Boast walks/talks
…while longing’s nameless legions wageA tug of war twixt fear and trustAnd we are apt to prize the cageRather than Soul, veiled by frail dust
Not by God’s providence bereftNor by His Righteous Eye ignoredFrom the fissure in Mercy’s cleftToday is flawlessly outpoured
Like the Lord’s love song undeterredHope soars once more, on eagle’s wingsNo jot or tittle of God’s WordForgot; faith lifts Her voice and sings
For With God; then, what more do we needThan worship, while the miracleMatures, within faith’s mustard seed
Like a song flawlessly outpouredThe heavens declare, loud and clearThe glory of our loving LordWhose favour vexes faith's veneer
Whose mercy, flawlessly outpouredFills frames with faithfulness renewedGod unfailingly keeps His WordThen sing, with joyful gratitude

Isa. 40:28-31(read the whole glorious chapter )
Do you not know?
Have you not heard?
The LORD is the everlasting God,
the Creator of the ends of the earth.
He will not grow tired or weary;
His understanding is beyond searching out.
He gives power to the faint
and increases the strength of the weak.
Even youths grow tired and weary,
and young men stumble and fall.
But those who wait upon the LORD will renew their strength;
they will mount up with wings like eagles;
they will run and not grow weary,
they will walk and not faint.
