His Love Can Never Fail

His Love Can Never Fail

I do not ask to see the way
My feet will have to tread;
But only that my sould may feed
Upon the living Bread.
'Tis better far that I should walk
By faith close to His side;
I may not know the way I go, But oh, I know my Guide.

Refrain
His love can never fail, His love can never fail,
My sould is satisfied to know His love can never fail,
My sould is satisfied to know His love can never fail.

And if my feet would go astray,
They cannot, for I know
That Jesus guides my falt'ring steps,
As joyfully I go.
And tho' I may not see His face,
My faith is strong and clear,
That in each hour of sore distress
My Savior will be near.
Refrain

I will not fear, tho' darkness come
Abroad o'er all the land,
If I may only feel the touch
Of His own loving hand.
And tho' I tremble when I think
How weak I am, and frial,
My soul is satisfied to know
His love can never fail
Refrain

I love this hymn, which has recently been introduced to my by a dear friend! I though this would be an appropriate way to start my writings, because this was the inspiration for the title of my blog :) I have had these words in my head lately (especially the bolded words) because in many ways I don't know where I am going. I know I am going to Bolivia to student teach on January 3rd, but I don't really know what it will look like. I also know that I will be graduating in May, but I don't really know where I will be going after that. So, "my soul is satisfied to know His love can never fail"... because "I know my Guide"! I trust God with the details, while I am just following where He leads. It can be kind of scary, but really it is quite comforting to know that He already knows what is ahead for me. At least someone knows :)

  2. Hey, friend! It's great to hear what you're up to including such ridiculous stories as blockades and random national holidays! : ) Know that I am praying for you...that God will conform you more to His image and you may use the gifts He's given you to glorify Christ and also for safety/strength/energy/wisdom/patience...i figure you might need some of that haha jk I love you much! you mean SOO much to me and I can't wait to see your beautiful face when you return (I know it's another couple of months, but I can still count down) enjoy the experience and keep your heart soft to what God will teach you and how He may use you! Stay in the Word and keep your eyes FIXED on Him!! This is not really relevant, but a verse that has stuck out to me a lot in my own time...Galatians 1:10 I love you, sister!!
