And it came to pass ( 2 Corinthians 4 v 16 - 18 )

              I heard this song recently written by Kaidi Tatham, called ,'These things will pass'.

                                            'These things will pass and some great morning,

                                             We'll look back and smile at heartaches we have known,

                                             So don't forget when shadows gather,

                                             The Lord our God is still the King upon the throne.

                                              These things will pass,so don't you worry,

                                              The darkest time is just one hour before the dawn,

                                              So hold up high and face your troubles ,

                                              And don't despair if you must face them all alone.

                                              A rose looks grey at midnight ,but the flame is just asleep,

                                              And steel is strong because it knew the hammer and white heat,

                                              When love and faith are strong, they cannot long endure.'

'But now, thus says the Lord, who created you O Jacob, and He who formed you, O Israel. Fear not, for I have redeemed you; I have called by your Name,you are mine.When you pass through the waters, I will be with you; And through the rivers, they shall not overflow you. When you walk  through the fire, you shall not be burned, nor shall the flame scorch you. For I am the Lord your God. The holy One of  Israel, your  Saviour'.       ( Isaiah 43 v 1 - 3 )
