He is the First and the Last. The Beginning and the End. He's the Keeper of creation and the Creator of all. He is the Architect of the universe and the Manager of all time.
He always was, always is and always will be unmoved, unchanged, undefeated, and never undone. He was bruised but brought healing. He was pierced but eased pain. He was persecuted but brought freedom. He was dead and brings life, risen to bring power, and He reigns to bring peace.
The world can't understand Him. Armies can't defeat Him. Schools can't explain Him. And leaders, they can't ignore Him. Herod couldn't kill Him. Nero couldn't crush Him. The new age cannot replace Him. And Oprah cannot explain Him away!
You remind yourself that He is Light, He is Love, He is Longevity, and He is the Lord.
He is goodness and kindness and faithfulness and He is God.
He is Holy and Righteous and powerful and pure.
His ways are right, His Word eternal, His will unchanging and His mind is on us.
He's our Savior, our guide, our peace, our joy, our comfort, our Lord and He rules our lives!
I serve Him because His bond is love, His yoke is easy, His burden is light and His goal for us is abundant life.
I follow Him because He's the Wisdom of the wise, the Power of the powerful, the Ancient of days, the Ruler of rulers, the Leader of all leaders.
His goal is a relationship with me.
He'll never leave you, never forsake you, never mislead you, never forget you, never overlook you, and never cancel your appointment in His appointment book.
When you fall He'll lift you up. When you fail He'll forgive you. When you're weak He's strong, when you're lost He's your way, when you're afraid He's your courage, when you stumble He will steady you, when you're hurt He's going to heal you. When you're broken He will mend you. When you're blind He will lead you. When you're hungry He will feed you. When you face trials He's with you.
When I face persecution He shields me. When I face problems He will comfort me. When I face loss He will provide for me. And when we face death He will carry us all home to meet Him.
He is everything, for everybody, everywhere, every time and in every way.
He is your God and that, Sisters, is who you belong to.
