My faith looks up to thee

The words below from this popular hymn resonated with me. Timeless and true, see the full hymn here.

May Thy rich grace impart
Strength to my fainting heart, my zeal inspire!
As Thou hast died for me, O may my love to Thee,
Pure warm, and changeless be, a living fire!

While life's dark maze I tread,
And griefs around me spread, be Thou my Guide;
Bid darkness turn to day, wipe sorrow's tears away,
Nor let me ever stray from Thee aside.

~ "My Faith Looks Up To Thee", written by Ray Palmer, 1830.

May our faith keep trusting in God's sovereign grace. Amen

Prologue- Memoirs of A Skilled Hunter

Dawn was drawing close. The gentle breeze came as a consolation, symphatising with the wild for bearing with the downpour that befell the night. This time, the predator walked along an unusual path, the rays of sun bouncing off the shy green of wet leaves providing a source of illumination to its glowing eyes. It had spotted prey and now it was calculating the next move... I hadn't seen her in ages. I watched intently as she made her way towards me, her hips swinging graciously from side-to-side, her movement emphasized by the frills on her flowery gown, accentuating her hourglass figure. It's been 10 years since I last saw her and it seemed every part of her body, visible to my eyes, had been renovated in heaven time and time again. She had become much more attractive, she was beautiful. The predator studied its prey. Well-hidden by the shadows cast by the tall fruitless trees, it was being careful. Avoiding every broken b...

Tunes Thursday!

Yes! It's Tunes Thursday! This is the time when I share my feyvorite contemporary music with you lovely people! Today, I found this gem of a song called "Lay It All Down". I used to have Will Reagan's music on repeat- my flatmates may testify of how his songs are etched into their memories, all for their good, I believe! 😁 After a long break from his music (and a lot of music in general), I am glad that this came up on my feed. Here's the video . Enjoy, and tell all your friends too! Love, FeyVored P.S. Please share the music you love to listen to with me in the comments sections. I'd love to have new songs on playlist!

Flowers

The hot sun rises and the grass withers; the little flower droops and falls, and its beauty fades away. (see James 1:11) I lost a dear friend a week ago. I found out today the cause of her death- she slept and didn't wake up. At first, I decided not to ask about the cause. I was hoping it was a peaceful passing-- with no pain or anguish, with no sorrow in her last moments, with no reason to doubt God's existence-- and it was. Daisy was a blessing. In the first year of secondary school, she was introduced to me as my elder sister's classmate and quickly became a dear friend. They were both aspiring to be senior prefects; Daisy was put in charge of my year, and my sister was in charge of another year. I knew Daisy was looking after me to make sure I had "junior girl life" easier than most of my peers had. She would come to help me arrange my locker ready for inspection, make sure my provisions were intact and...
