How great Thou art!

Dear Friends,

Thanks for stopping by!

Thanks for all your prayers and encouragements. Thank you for the sweet comments you have left me.

I am thankful to God that He continues to preserve me daily and grants me the joy of trusting in Him and serving Him.

Just a short note to let you know that I am well and pressing on in the Lord's strength and grace daily. I missed all of you and hope to be back blogging soon.

Meanwhile, I like to share with you this encouraging hymn which the Lord has used to encourage me.

May you be encouraged too that we serve a Great God!

As we consider His mercies, grace and lovingkindness, may our hearts be lifted up to Him in praise and thanksgiving daily.

How great Thou art

O Lord my God, When I in awesome wonder,
Consider all the worlds Thy Hands have made;
I see the stars, I hear the rolling thunder,
Thy power throughout the universe displayed.

Then sings my soul, My Saviour God, to Thee,
How great Thou art, How great Thou art.
Then sings my soul, My Saviour God, to Thee,
How great Thou art, How great Thou art!

When through the woods, and forest glades I wander,
And hear the birds sing sweetly in the trees.
When I look down, from lofty mountain grandeur
And see the brook, and feel the gentle breeze.

Then sings my soul, My Saviour God, to Thee,
How great Thou art, How great Thou art.
Then sings my soul, My Saviour God, to Thee,
How great Thou art, How great Thou art!

And when I think, that God, His Son not sparing;
Sent Him to die, I scarce can take it in;
That on the Cross, my burden gladly bearing,
He bled and died to take away my sin.

Then sings my soul, My Saviour God, to Thee,
How great Thou art, How great Thou art.
Then sings my soul, My Saviour God, to Thee,
How great Thou art, How great Thou art!

When Christ shall come, with shout of acclamation,
And take me home, what joy shall fill my heart.
Then I shall bow, in humble adoration,
And then proclaim: "My God, how great Thou art!"

Then sings my soul, My Saviour God, to Thee,
How great Thou art, How great Thou art.
Then sings my soul, My Saviour God, to Thee,
How great Thou art, How great Thou art!




Thanks again for stopping by. Take care and may God grant you a blessed week!

Some Awards to share with you while I take a short break

Dear Friends,

Thanks for stopping by.

My sincere apology for not being able to visit many of you in these recent weeks and especially these few days.

Lately, I have been rather swarmed by some family commitments, works and other unforseen circumstances.

I am also still learning to pace myself moderately so that I don't over-stretch myself and burnout again.

I will try to post every now and then for the benefit of my readers.

But due to time constraints, I am tentatively taking a short break from visiting blogs. So sorry about that!

I will try to resume visiting your blogs as soon as I can as I really missed reading your posts. You are in my thoughts and prayers.

I am thankful to God and to all of you who have kindly joined in my First Give-away. I will be in touch with you as soon as I can and will post the bookmarks to you. My apology for the delay!

Meanwhile, I like to share with everyone of you, the following Awards which some kind friends have given to me in the recent weeks.

I am thankful to God that I can meet so many of you through blogging. I am thankful for all your prayers and encouragements.

I thank you for sowing the seeds of Christ's Love and lifting up my spirit through your blogs and comments.
