Nothing can ever touch me
"There
is nothing---no circumstance, no trouble, no testing---that can ever touch me,
until first of all it has gone past God and past Christ, right through to
me. If it has come that far, it has come with a great purpose,
which I may not understand at the moment, but as I refuse to become panicky, as
I lift up my eyes to Him and accept it as coming from the Throne of God for some
great purpose of blessing to my own heart, no sorrow will ever disturb
me, no trial will ever disarm me, no circumstance will cause me to fret -- for I
shall rest in the joy of what my Lord is! by Alan Redpath |
