How brief is our span of life compared with the time since You created the universe. How tiny we are compared with the enormity of Your universe. How trivial are our concerns compared with the complexity of Your universe. How stupid we are compared with the genius of Your creation.

Yet during every minute and every second of our lives You are present, within and around us. You give Your attention to each and every one of us. Our concerns are Your concerns. And You are infinitely patient with our stupidity. I thank You with all my heart, knowing that my thanks are as nothing compared to Your greatness.

Faith in God can move a mighty mountain
Have you prayers that seem to be unanswered?
Anxious moments, trials hard to bear?
Have faith in His promise unfailing.
God will hear; He will answer your prayer. 

Are there loved ones yet for whom you’re burdened?
Lonely nights spent bowed in fervent prayer?
God sees ev’ry tear and your heartache,
So just cast upon Him all your care. 

Then keep faith, although the way be rugged.
Do not doubt His deep, unfailing love.
Sufficient each day for the trial
Is His promise of grace from above. 

Faith in God can move a mighty mountain,
Faith can calm the troubled sea;
Faith can make a desert like a fountain,
Faith can bring the victory.
