What a comfort it is to know that, no matter what our situation is, God is always there for us to reach out to.  He always seems to make a way where we can see no way, and He answers all our prayers, although sometimes it may not be in the way we expect.  For this reason, we can be confident in saying that His peace will fill our hearts and minds as we go about our earthly duties each day.

I KNOW YOU ARE...

I know You are my Saviour —
You've set me free from sin and shame —
But only because I asked You to forgive
Will my life never be the same.

I know You are my Provider
And that You will supply my every need;
But only of my necessity,
Not my want and not my greed.

I know You are my Shepherd,
Who will keep me safe from harm,
And as long as I choose to follow You,
You will shelter me 'neath Your arm.

I know You are my sword and shield,
And my strong and mighty tower,
But I need to admit my weakness, Lord,
So You can reveal Your awesome power.

I know You are my well-spring of joy,
And You are the source of my peace,
And as long as I trust in You alone,
From fear and sorrow You'll bring release.

I know You are my all in all,
And I will follow no one but You,
And as I continue to walk in Your ways,
I know You will be just and true.

I know You are faithful and cannot lie,
And I can believe all the promises You made,
So forever I'll put my trust in You,
And from now on I'll not be afraid.
