The Tender Mercies of Our God

There is something so tender and humbling about our experience of God.

“Behold, we count them happy which endure.
You have heard of the patience of Job,
and have seen the end (purpose) of the LORD;
that the LORD is very pitiful, and of tender mercy.” (James 5:11)

When going on looks hard, look back, and remember. The Lord is trustworthy. How many distresses has he brought you through?

  1. Amen! Thank you for your encouragement, Maribeth! Kinuko

    p.s. Maribeth, I'd like to share with you that one of our headcovering sisters was asked to "stop" covering her head during the worship time by her pastor last week, because it might cause "divisions" among church members. It saddened us greatly. However, the Lord has used this incident for all of us to grow in our faith and humility. You can read her sharing and the comforting comments of other headcovering sisters below (the comment section.)
