God loves us the way we are, but He loves us too much to leave us that way.

From Hebrews 10:38-39:  “But my righteous one will live by faith.  My soul takes no pleasure in anyone who shrinks back.  But we are not among those who shrink back and so are lost but among those who have faith and so preserve our souls.”

Leighton Ford (born 1931) is a Canadian-born pastor and Christian evangelist.  During his fruitful life of ministry and witness, he has enjoyed relationships with other Christian teachers, including Billy Graham.

Heavenly Father

Knowing what is best

His eternal presence

Leads man on his quest

 

Protection promised

Ford every river

Faith’s redeeming mercy

Spirit delivers

 

Encouragement brings

Restoration’s grace

Walking through every fire

Christ’s love to embrace

 

Precious in His sight

Hope fills cup, as planned

Chance eliminated

Gathered in God’s hands

 

Calling all nations

Eyes no longer blind

Accepting Father’s truth

Just as He designed

From Isaiah 43:9:  “Let all the nations gather together, and let the peoples assemble.  Who among them declared this and foretold to us the former things?  Let them bring their witnesses to justify them, and let them hear and say, ‘It is true.'”
