Soundtrack

Was reminded of something I said a couple of years ago. Don't you wish your life had a movie soundtrack to it. Imagine the "Jaws" theme just before something bad happens. That would be great or at least it would give us a heads up as to what's coming. Our life has had it's own soundtrack but the tracks are either concurrent with live or just a few moments after the fact. A constant theme for as long as I can remember is GREAT IS THY FAITHFULNESS. "...All I have needed Thy hand has provided..." His timing is always perfect. Not necessarily our timing but His. Like the old song says, "He's never late, never early, He's an on time God" When the time was right, after a 400 year silence, God spoke His love to the world, to you and me, through a baby. A baby that "grew in favor with God and man." A boy that astounded the religious leaders when He was only 12. A man who not only fulfilled the Law but expanded it. "Love your enemies...Turn the other cheek...Go the extra mile..." A man who laid down His life for His friends. That friendship spans the centuries to today. Because of that great love, we can truly know what love is. Without His love, our love is just a shadow. "...Morning by morning new mercies I see...Great is Thy faithfulness, Lord, unto me!" Thank you!
