"... forget me not..."

"Let us charge ourselves to bind 

a heavenly forget-me-not about our hearts

 for Jesus our Beloved, and, 

whatever else we let slip,

 let us hold fast to Him." (CHS)

"Now I bring you the message

 that in prosperity as in adversity,

 in the sunshine as in a dark, 

your God is ready to keep you 

all the time." 

Andrew Murray Absolute Surrender

"..who are KEPT by the power of God through faith for salvation ready to be revealed in the last time." 

1 Peter 1:5

God oversees all and sees in great detail 

and does not overlook our needs 

 "Know I am with you,

 and I will watch over you

 no matter where you go."

 Genesis 28:15

" Rivers in high places.."

"I will open rivers in high places,

 and fountains in the midst of the valleys:

 I will make the wilderness a pool of water,

 and the dry land springs of water."

Isaiah 41:18 

"In the tragedy, You grieve with me

Your comfort is my song

In my wandering, You're still rescuing

You will never, never give up

You are on my side

You go before me

You stand behind

You tell my fear to run

Always and forever"

"On my Side" -Kim Walker-Smith

"Come, and let us go up to the mountain.."

"Come, and let us go up to the mountain

 of the Lord."—Isaiah 2:3.

"It is exceedingly beneficial to our souls to mount above this present evil world to something nobler and better. The cares of this world and the deceitfulness of riches are apt to choke everything good within us, and we grow fretful, desponding,....

....up yonder, on the mountain, 

you find a hardy race, who breathe the clear fresh air as it blows from the virgin snows

 of the Alpine summits.

 It would be well if the dwellers in the valley could frequently leave their abodes among the marshes and the fever mists, and inhale the bracing element upon the hills.

 It is to such an exploit of climbing that I invite you... May the Spirit of God assist us to leave the mists of fear and the fevers of anxiety, 

and all the ills which gather in this valley of earth, and to ascend the mountains of anticipated joy and blessedness. .. May God now grant us grace,...."
