Sunday's Hymn

We sang this Fanny Crosby hymn this morning.

He Hideth My Soul

A wonderful Savior is Jesus my Lord,
A wonderful Savior to me;
He hideth my soul in the cleft of the rock,
Where rivers of pleasure I see.

Refrain
He hideth my soul in the cleft of the rock
That shadows a dry, thirsty land;
He hideth my life with the depths of His love,
And covers me there with His hand,
And covers me there with His hand.

A wonderful Savior is Jesus my Lord,
He taketh my burden away;
He holdeth me up, and I shall not be moved,
He giveth me strength as my day.

With numberless blessings each moment He crowns,
And filled with His fullness divine,
I sing in my rapture, oh, glory to God
For such a Redeemer as mine!

When clothed in His brightness, transported I rise
To meet Him in clouds of the sky,
His perfect salvation, His wonderful love
I’ll shout with the millions on high.

How about a YouTube piano solo version of this hymn? There’s no information about who this is, but it’s very nice.

Being Thankful on November 15

I’m allergic to peanuts. I haven’t eaten peanuts for a very long time and I don’t miss peanuts much, but I really did miss peanut butter. So I’m very thankful for pea butter, which I buy right at my local supermarket. Pea butter is not, like most food substitutes, a pale imitation of the real thing. It’s just as good, and maybe better, than peanut butter. I can have all those snacks I used to love, just with pea butter instead of peanut butter—crackers and pea butter, pea butter and jam sandwiches, and best of all, pea butter ants on a log.

I’m thankful for pea butter, the golden peas it’s made from, and the Alberta farmer who came up with the idea and developed the product. They are gifts from my Father who provides every good thing.

• Willow is thankful for days of solitude and more.
• Ann is thankful for less expensive fuel.
• Connie is thankful for “God’s mercy in protecting my family as we travel here and there….”
• Liz is thankful for sticky snow and more.
• Kim of Hiraeth is thankful for her darling little grandson.
• Tulipgirl is thankful for family birthdays and more.
• Dorothy is thankful for warmer weather.
• Dawn is thankful for a new hoodie.
• Carla is thanful for a message from Phil Johnson.

What are you thankful for?

I’m celebrating good gifts from God during the month of November and hoping you’ll be thankful for your good gifts, too. Here’s how you can join in the thanksgiving and even, perhaps, get something material from it. If you’ve posted something you’ve posted something you’ve expected me to include and you don’t see it on the list, please let me know. I do miss things sometimes.

Being Thankful on November 14

A few days ago I wrote that I loved blogging because it adds discipline to my life and keeps me learning. I’d probably keep on doing it without feedback, but still, it’s good to be told that someone learns from what I write or makes good use of what they find here. And I’ve received some encouraging words like that over the past week and I’m thankful for them.

• It’s Dawn’s birthday, and she’s thankful to have had so many years.
• Dorothy is thankful for days when she gets to stay home all day.
• Tulipgirl is thankful for weekends and more.
• Julana is thankful for her son’s wonderful aide at school.
• Kim of The Upward Call is thankful for good report cards.
• Suzanne is thankful for a friend.
• Kim of Hiraeth is thankful for “the right tools, the right instruction, and time to practice.”
• Liz is thankful for the “circumstances, events and schedule shifts that have led to my attending a movie tonight with just my husband for the first time (I believe) since our kids were born.”
• Connie is thankful for God’s longsuffering.
• Ann is thankful for an everning together as a family.
• Becky is thankful for her Lord.
