• “Keep on running even when you have had a fall. The victory wreath is won by him who does not stay down, but always gets up again, grasps the banner of faith and keeps on running in the assurance that Jesus is Victor.” – Basilea Schlink

A Symphony of One by Alan Martin

Published June 21, 2011 | By womenofchristianity
Make us a symphony of One
Focused upon One conductor
Tuned to One concert pitch
Submitted to One tempo

Content to play One part
Perfected to One sound
Resulting in One purpose
The praise of our Composer

Free us from solo vain glory
Content us to watch as we rest
Ready to play our one measure
Trusting our Maestro knows best

Teach us love’s concert ambition
Cleanse us from comparing pride
Put to death vain competition
Let harmony’s fruit now abide

That Thou blessed Lord may have pleasure
Diverse yet through unity one
Accomplishing Your One true treasure
The summation of all in Your SON

  • “I think of the love of God as a great river, pouring through us even as the waters pour through our ravine at floodtime. Nothing can keep this love from pouring through us, except of course our own blocking of the river. Do you sometimes feel that you have got to the end of your love for someone who refuses and repulses you? Such a thought is folly, for one cannot come to the end of what one has not got. We have no store of love at all. We are not jugs, we are riverbeds.” – Amy Carmichael

Verse of the Day

God thunders marvelously with His voice; He does great things which we cannot comprehend. For He says to the snow, ‘Fall on the earth’; Likewise to the gentle rain and the heavy rain of His strength. — Job 37:5-6 (NKJV)
