He giveth ( Ephesians 1 v 7 )


                         I was struck by the words from James 4 v 6
                         ''But He gives us more grace '' , Alec Motyer
                         writes ,'' His resources are never at an end,
                         His patience is never exhausted, His initiative
                         never stops, His generosity knows no limit;
                         He gives more grace.
                      
                                      Annie Johnson Flint
                          
                          He giveth more grace when the burdens grow
                          greater,
                          He sendeth more strength when the labors
                          increase.
                          To added affliction He addeth His mercy
                          To multiplied trials,His multiplied peace.

                           When we have exhausted our store of
                           endurance,
                           When our strength has failed ere the day
                           is half done,
                           When we reach the end of our hoarded
                            resources,
                            Our Father's full giving is only begun.

                           His love has no limits, His grace has no
                           measure,
                           His power has no boundary known unto
                           men.
                           For out of  His infinite riches in Jesus,
                           He giveth, and giveth, and giveth again.
