Let the Lord have his way


Here's a great song to sing, especially when teaching the story of Esther but it's also great for adults and for any occasion.

Let the Lord have his way
in your life every day.
There’s no rest, there’s no peace,
until the Lord has his way.
Place your life in his Hand.
Rest secure in his plan.
Let the Lord, let the Lord have his way.

The illustrated songbook is no longer available. However, piano music for this song and 60 other children's songs can be found in Growing Songs for Children Book 1, which is available through Child Evangelism Fellowship: https://cefpress.com/kids-sing-the-good-news-2-cd.html

By David C. Cook

For both Ruth and Esther, God used stressful circumstances to bring about His eternal purposes. Ruth's committment to the God of Naomi affected every generation to come, as she became an ancestor of King David and more importantly, Jesus Christ. Esther's obedience led to the preservation of her people at a moment in history when all seemed lost.

The stories of Ruth and Esther will make you contemplate: Would I trust God enough to do what they did? Go chapter by chapter through the books of Ruth and Esther to see how the lives of these two remarkable women epitomize the type of faith that glorifies God.

Happy New Year!

Has this year been filled with more challenges than ever before? Then that must mean there have been more opportunities than ever before, because whenever we face a new challenge, we have yet one more opportunity to prove God faithful. It’s an opportunity to flex our spiritual muscles and become stronger in our faith. 

The key is where we place our focus—on our circumstances or on our God. “For with God nothing shall be impossible” (Luke 1:37). The fact is, God is greater than any problem we have. 

It’s not our job to try and figure out the why. It’s our job to trust God. “Thou wilt keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on thee: because he trusteth in thee” (Isaiah 26:3). Let’s rest confidently in the peace of God as we face this new year.
