Learning to Lean on the Everlasting Arms!!


 



I shared this verse with a friend of mine yesterday 
and had to blog about it too :)  Because, here's why.....
in a world where people change, things change, weather changes, leaves change, 
God does not, He is there, with His everlasting arms, the same yesterday, today and forever!!

And I don't know about you 
but I like the fact that the One I'm to lean on, calls His arms, everlasting arms!!

And, like the song writer said, 
I too am "finding more power than I've ever dreamed" by learning to 
lean on those lovely, everlasting arms, 
not by leaning on my own strength, that's for sure but on Christ's alone!!
( I'm still learning to lean daily by the way, it's WAY easier said than done).

But isn't it so good to know, underneath it all, are THE everlasting arms!!! 
He's there holding you up and holding me up. 
And honestly, the calm in my spirit and the joy
that comes with leaning is beyond my understanding. 

"What have I to dread? What have I to fear? 
Leaning on the everlasting arms, I have blessed peace with 
my Lord so near, leaning on the everlasting arms!" Love this old hymn.




"Earth has no words that can convey
the holy calm of a soul leaning on Jesus"
-Spurgeon

I wish you all happy leaning friends!!
