How Great Thou Art!

All pictures but the one immediately below were taken on a recent jaunt to the Continent.

 "When through the woods

And forest glades I wander,

And hear the birds

Sing sweetly in the trees;

"When I look down

From lofty mountain grandeur

And hear the brook

And feel the gentle breeze,

"Then sings my soul,

My Savior God, to Thee,

How great Thou art!

How great Thou art!

Then sings my soul,

My Savior God to Thee,

How great Thou art!

How great Thou art!"

"Enter into His gates with Thanksgiving, 

     And into His courts with praise.

     Be thankful to Him and bless His name.

For the LORD is good;

     His mercy is everlasting,

     And His truth endures to all generations."

Psalm 100:4-5

Abiding...

"As the Father has loved Me, I also have loved you; abide in My love. If you keep My commandments, you will abide in My love, just as I have kept My Father's commandments and abide in His love.

These things I have spoken to you, that My joy may remain in you, and that your joy may be full."

John 15:9-11

St. Crispin's Day Remembered

Today, we remember St. Crispin's Day and the anniversary of the Battle of Agincourt. In that historic battle in 1415, on French soil, an overwhelming number of French soldiers were soundly defeated by the ragtag English army. 

God's hand of Providence was clearly shown that day, and continues to be shown today in our time.

What follows in the video is a rousing speech, one of the most famous speeches in history, given by Harry (King Henry V) to his men before the Battle of Agincourt.

"The king's heart is in the hand of the LORD, as the rivers of water: He turneth it whithersoever He will."

Proverbs 21:1
