O CALVARY’S LOVE

By Dr. Linda Agnes Knowles

O Calvary’s Love,

Who set me free,

Thank you for your grace

That you’ve bestowed upon me.

O Calvary’s Love,

My God and King,

You have chosen me,

And called me out,

My heart, O God, bows to you alone.

O Calvary’s Love,

My hope and trust are in you,

For you never disappoint;

My Jesus, you never fail.

O Calvary’s Love,

You have granted me liberty.

O Calvary’s Love,

Thank you for loving me;

Thank you for granting me,

Overwhelming victory.

O Calvary’s Love,

I call to you to wash me clean,

And to make me whole,

By your redemptive power,

Found in that crimson flow.

O Calvary’s Love,

Who set me free,

My Lord, My God,

My Everything!

O Calvary’s Love,

Thank you for giving me

This song to sing.

Goodbye, 2018!

As I sit here and think about the Year 2018, I can’t help but wonder about the faithfulness of God. He has truly shown Himself to be the God of Justice, and He has vindicated me in ways I would never have imagined. He has shown me up front and personal about how sin destroys and the consequences it brings through situations and circumstances that were far beyond my control. He has taught me strength, patience, and wisdom. He has carried me and upheld me by His victorious and righteous right hand.

My God continues to show Himself as the God of the Impossible and has shown Himself to be my Protector and my Hope. The Lord has been my Song, the Sweet Melody I can sing in the calm, the storm, the day, the night, times of sorrow, and times of joy; and as I go into the year 2019, I can’t wait to see what God has in store.

HAVE A VERY SAFE AND BLESSED NEW YEAR TO ALL MY BLOG READERS AND NEIGHBORS AROUND THE GLOBE!

Much Love To You All, Linda A. Knowles

“Yet I call this to mind, and therefore I have hope: Because of the LORD’s loving devotions we are not consumed, for His compassions never fail. They are new every morning; great is Your faithfulness!” -Lamentations 22:21-23BSB

Get Ready To Throw & Then Do So

“I’ve learned that you shouldn’t go through life with a catcher’s mitt on both hands; you need to be able to throw something back.” -Maya Angelou

 

When we give of ourselves to help those around us, we demonstrate the love of Christ; and in the Gospels, when we see our Savior being moved with compassion, we also should be moved with compassion as we follow His example and help those around us.

May we always remember to be His hands extended.

Much love to you all,

L.A. Knowles
