Thank You for Praying

"Rejoice in the Lord, O you righteous, and give thanks to His holy Name... Know that the Lord, He is God! It is He Who made us, and we are His." Psalm 97:12, 100:3.

Thank you all for praying Jake. Please continue to pray that my sister and our families would rejoice in the will of God, praise the Name of God, and trust in the perfect character of God.

Even when we don't understand His will, we must remember His worth and act accordingly. His plans have been firmly established since the beginning of time and there is nothing that can happen apart from Him. And He is GOOD all the time; all the time, He is good! Let us practice what we just sang at church and continuously rejoice in the sovereignty we so vigorously defend, in the hard times as we do in the happy times (I almost said "good" but He has declared His will to be good and He has accomplished it).

My brother-in-law, Jacob, has attained the prize for which he was running and seen the face of the Lord he was serving. Jake has seen God as He is and been transformed into the likeness of His Son (1 John 3:2). In life, he was being guarded by God's power for an inheritance that is imperishable, undefiled, and unfading that he has now, by the grace of God, obtained (1 Peter 1).

Praise the sovereign, wise, matchless, worthy, loving Father, Son, and Holy Spirit! Thank you for your prayers, fellow Body and Bride of Him Who is worthy of all praise in the midst of all things!

"Turn your eyes upon Jesus, look full in His wonderful face and the things of earth will grow strangely dim in the light of His glory and grace!"

"Carried by Your constant grace, held within Your perfect peace... we know every victory is Your power in us... Every step we are breathing in Your grace, evermore we'll be breathing out Your praise. You are faithful, God, You are faithful."
