No Not One

 Isaiah 41:10  Fear thou not; for I am with thee: be not dismayed; for I am thy God: I will strengthen thee; yea, I will help thee; yea, I will uphold thee with the right hand of my righteousness.

Whatever we may face, I’m thankful that we can count on God and His promises.


For instance, today I wanted to vote early but felt uneasy about standing in long lines. It’s physically hard for me, so I prayed about it. 


Not finding parking where we usually vote, we went to another place where parking was right by the door and voting close inside with no line. It was perfect. 


There’s no one like Jesus. He answers prayer for me every day. He’s the best friend I ever had. 


No Not One

There's not a friend like the lowly Jesus;   —   No, not one! No, not one!   —   None else could heal all our souls diseases;   —   No, not one! No, not one!


CHORUS::

Jesus knows all about our struggles.   —   He will guide till the day is done.   —   There's not a friend like the lowly Jesus;   —   No, not one! No, not one!


No friend like Him is so high and holy;  —  No, not one! No, not one! —  And yet no friend is so meek and lowly; —  No, not one! No, not one!


There's not an hour that He is not near us;   —   No, not one! No, not one!   —   No night so dark but His love can cheer us;   —   No, not one!  No, not one!
