New Year 2019

Frankly, I am not sure how non-believers deal with being between jobs.  Once again, sitting in church, singing from the old hymns, the promises of God ring out to meet all our needs.  While engaged in the search for our next assignment, we can become frustrated with the pace of the effort and the lack of response from places where we have applied.  Frankly, I have heard (and probably you have too) seekers rant and rave over the fact that they have not been contacted by a potential employer or offered an interview.  

In reality, we know very little about what is going on in the company.  They may have some crisis with which they are dealing, and bringing in a new hire is the least of their worries!  God knows what is happening and when is the best time and the best company with which you should connect.  Have peace that He knows best and continue to work through the Sabbatical process.  In the meantime, God will provide for you.  Today, during worship, I was amazed and encouraged by the message of several of the old hymns we sang.

Consider these verses:


Our God, Our Help in Ages Past

Our God, our help in ages past, our hope for years to come, 
Our shelter from the stormy blast and our eternal home! 

Under the shadow of Thy throne Thy saints have dwelt secure; 
Sufficient is Thine arm alone and our defense is sure. 

Our God, our help in ages past, our hope for years to come, 
Be Thou our guard while life shall last, and our eternal home.  


And in another old hymn:  Jesus, Thou Joy of Loving Hearts 

Jesus, Thou joy of loving hearts, Thou fount of life, Thou light of men, 
From the best bliss that earth imparts we turn unfilled to Thee again. 

Thy truth unchanged hath ever stood; Thou savest those that on Thee call;
To them that seek Thee Thou art good, to them that find Thee all in all. 

We taste Thee, O Thou living bread, and long to feast upon Thee still; 
We drink of Thee, the fountainhead, and thirst our souls from Thee to fill. 

Our restless spirits yearn for Thee, where’er our changeful lot is cast; 
Glad when Thy gracious smile we see, blest when our faith can hold Thee fast. 

O Jesus, ever with us stay, make all our moments calm and bright; 
Chase the dark night of sin away, shed o’er the world Thy holy light.
