Meditation/Betty's Verse Of The Day
James 5:7
[ Patience in Suffering ] Be patient, then, brothers and sisters, until the Lord’s coming. See how the farmer waits for the land to yield its valuable crop, patiently waiting for the autumn and spring rains.
The farmer must wait patiently for his crops to grow; he cannot hurry the process. But he does not take the summer off and hope that all goes well in the fields. There is much work to do to ensure a good harvest. In the same way we must wait patiently for Christ's return. We cannot make him come back any sooner, But while we wait, there is much work that can do to advance God's kingdom.

Just my Heart
When the deep dark wind of pain starts folding in around me you take hold of my hands and wrap them in love. It seems that this way of darkness unfolds right before my eyes it’s your love that keeps me alive So precious is the thought that unwinds of the way things use to be when you found me the first time You shelter me in Thy Grace Your hands touch my face Your ways are true when we meet one day in the world anew the shadows will fade and you’ll make me new Oh how I long for the time when I see you coming in the sky your heart in mine the darkness leaves my heart starts to sing A new song for you when we all are made brand new..

When You Whisper
I long to live a life of love When you whisper to me from above My heart melts for you alone The pain Lord, just won't let go. When you whisper I long to hear Your words alone, I long to know I long to grow. My heart is full of sorrow and pain Nobody knows, Lord, Nobody knows When you whisper, my heart wants to hear The way to live, the way to give. It hurts inside, I don't know how to hide But when you whisper I stand in awe The pain fades, your arms give me shelter My heart longs to make you smile O my Lord please don't leave When you whisper it gives me peace To let you only give me release From all the shadows that make me ache Your voice whispers my heart is at peace.

Where the River flows
There is a place that I long to see,
Where the river flows to Eternity.
There is a King who shelters me,
where the river flows to Eternity.
There is a Savior I won't deny.
Where the river flows to Eternity.
There is my Lord Jesus on High,
where the river flows to Eternity.
His plan will unfold for all Eternity.
There is a place I soon will be,
Where the river flows for all Eternity.
