The earth rotates once every 23 hours, 56 minutes and 4.09053 seconds, the surface of the earth is moving roughly 1,000 miles per hour.
We are on a wild ride to a brand new day.
All through the night, even at it’s darkest point, we may be sitting in darkness… but we are moving through the night.
Moving through the night,
To a brand new day.
As the Milkman in a bygone day delivered milk,
As the newspaper boy threw the paper on the sidewalk,
New Mercy is waiting on you.
Weeping may endure for the night…
However, though you are unaware of it… joy is coming to you at you 1,000 miles an hour.
What will meet you on this day?
Trouble, difficulty,
Blessings and peace
Hold on, you are just passing through.
Puts a new perspective on these few lines from a song from a few years ago.
Time is filled with swift transition,
Naught of earth unmoved can stand,
Build your hopes on things eternal,
Hold to God’s unchanging hand.
Refrain:
Hold to God’s unchanging hand,
Hold to God’s unchanging hand;
Build your hopes on things eternal,
Hold to God’s unchanging hand.
Trust in Him who will not leave you,
Whatsoever years may bring,
If by earthly friends forsaken
Still more closely to Him cling.
Covet not this world’s vain riches
That so rapidly decay,
Seek to gain the heav’nly treasures,
They will never pass away.
When your journey is completed,
If to God you have been true,
Fair and bright the home in glory
Your enraptured soul will view.
“The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want.
He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters.
He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name’s sake.
Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me.
Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over.
Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the Lord for ever.”
