[Faith-talk] Good Night Message for Tuesday, May 29 2012

[Paul]

Hello and good evening folks, right in the middle of a raging thunderstorm.  Hope I can get through this message before the power goes off here, if in fact it does.  Well, will carry on.  We need the rain, and my does it smell good when it does! It's better than smelling motor vehicle exhaust, right? I knew that most of you would agree.  I also hope that your day went well, by God's matchless grace and His providential care.

Our words of inspiration this evening come from the pen of yours truly.  Some of you have read these lines previously, but the majority have not.  I have since rededicated these lines to six VSP's or very special people, humble servants that I've had the pleasure of talking with personally.  They probably don't know this, but they individually have done more in the way of keeping me emotionally stable in the past three years than anyone locally ever did.  Of course, it was the action of the Holy Spirit working through them.  The title of your humble servant's contribution is entitled "A Little Tender Care," and is rendered as follows:

Just a little tender care
And the sweetest rose will grow.
Just a little tender care
And God will make it so.

Just a little tender care
And the baby bird will fly.
Just a little tender care
Then he will own the sky.

Just a little tender care
And our loved ones will know
That they are truly blessed,
For love has made it so.

All the things we say and do
And all the things we share
Can make this place like God intends
With just a little tender care.

And there you have it for this evening.  The mention of a baby bird taking to the sky refers to encouragement on the part of these six very special humble servants.

And now may the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob just keep us all, individually and collectively, safe throughout this night and especially in the last days in which we live.  Good night, and may the God of peace rule in your hearts.  Your Christian brother, Paul
