Words Of Comfort



"WORRIES FOR WINGS"
by Jeff Leslie


One day I thought I had everything
Then at once it was taken away
When I cried on my knees, "Tell me why, Jesus, please."
These were the words He would say

"Keep your head and your heart in the heavens
Keep your faith and your eyes upon Me
Then one day you will see what your faithfulness brings
When you trade all your worries for wings"

Somewhere there lies a great treasure
But it's not made to see at this time
By believing the promise He made me that day
I feel like it's already mine

"Keep your head and your heart in the heavens
Keep your faith and your eyes upon Me
Then one day you will see what your faithfulness brings
When you trade all your worries for wings"

What in the world could be better
Than life with the heavenly King?

"Keep your head and your heart in the heavens
Keep your faith and your eyes upon Me
Then one day you will see what your faithfulness brings
When you trade all your worries for wings
Then one day you will see what your faithfulness brings
When you trade all your worries for wings"

Words Of Comfort

"Dear friends, do not be surprised at the painful trial you are suffering, as though something strange were happening to you. But rejoice that you participate in the sufferings of Christ, so that you may be overjoyed when his glory is revealed." (1 Peter 4:12-13)

"But they that wait upon the LORD shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint." (Isaiah 40:31 KJV)

"And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose." (Rom. 8:28)

"Consider it pure joy, my brothers, whenever you face trials of many kinds, because you know that the testing of your faith develops perseverance. Perseverance must finish its work so that you may be mature and complete, not lacking anything." (James 1:4)

" For I am the LORD, your God, who takes hold of your right hand and says to you, Do not fear; I will help you." (Isa. 41:13)



In Closing

I quoted the Scriptures above and throughout my site for myself for the most part. They are some of my favorite passages because I am encouraged by the promises they express. When I read the Word, I know God is speaking to me. There He tells me why there is suffering and conveys His promises to those who believe.

I am now in my 50's and it has been 30 years since becoming disabled and 15 years since my miraculous vision. Jesus no longer visits my dreams, but my faith and love for Him are like never before. I pray you find His love and joy and peace as I have. (PHOTO. ca. 2002 I'm in my 40's here. I posted this for nostalgia. Check out the price of gas.)
