Place all at the feet of Our Lord

[Debra Glidden]

Today I learned of a financial situation of a friend. While on the phone with her, I prayed, Father, how can I help her? Immediately, I was able to make some phone calls
on her behalf but I knew that was not enough. Soon after, I realized that I became aware of this situation so that I could raise it up to God.
I began to pray, knowing that “The Lord will perfect that which concerneth me: thy mercy, O Lord, endureth for ever: forsake not the works of thine own hands.” (Psalms 138:8) and that no matter what the situation is; financial, physical, or emotiomal, Divine law prevails!! I was lead to our beautiful hymn 298, written by Mary Baker Eddy.

Saw ye my Saviour? Heard ye the glad sound?
Felt ye the power of the Word?
Twas the Truth that made us free,
And was found by you and me
In the life and the love of our Lord.

Mourner, it calls you,—“Come to my bosom,
Love wipes your tears all away,
And will lift the shade of gloom,
And for you make radiant room
Midst the glories of one endless day.”

Sinner, it calls you,—“Come to this fountain,
Cleanse the foul senses within;
’Tis the Spirit that makes pure,
That exalts thee, and will cure
All thy sorrow and sickness and sin.”

Strongest deliverer, friend of the friendless,
Life of all being divine:
Thou the Christ, and not the creed;
Thou the Truth in thought and deed;
Thou the water, the bread, and the wine.

I am very grateful for the word of our Lord, Mrs. Eddy’s gift to us, and our church. All of which enable us to know that God provides for us, heals us, and loves us!!
