Great and Merciful God

Josephine Mary Schmidt

I love you, my Lord, my Lord
Your glory fills my heart
You’re a merciful God
Such a merciful God

You’re a merciful God with hope and love and understanding
The pain You take, the price has been paid
With love and light, Your truth and Your goodness
Jesus, the King has washed death away

You never leave me helplessly calling
You’re a merciful God
Such a merciful God

Your holiness fills my body
You’re a merciful God
Such a merciful God

You’re a merciful God with hope and love and understanding
The pain You take, the price has been paid
With love and light, Your truth and Your goodness
Jesus, the King has washed death away

Blessed are the righteous, blessed are their prayers
Blessed are the righteous, blessed are their prayers
You tell me it gives You great pleasure
To give Your little flock the Kingdom of heaven
Don’t be afraid
Don’t be afraid
Don’t be afraid
Don’t be afraid

Keep Believing (Official Video)

October 22, 2021 • Josephine Mary Schmidt • 1 Corinthians 9:24–27, Hebrews 12:1

"Keep believing in the Son of God," Jesus Christ, is essential to the Christian faith. It might seem straightforward and obvious, but believing in Jesus Christ is met with a lot of opposition in an unbelieving world. Jesus said in John 16:9 that the sin of the world is unbelief, so we need encouragement every day because it's hard to remain faithful. We have a race to run. It's the same for each person, with the same purpose - to keep our faith in Jesus Christ, and the reward is also the same. But each person has their own, unique individual work to do in that race. It's called "the work of the evangelist." At the heart of things, we are all to bring our Savior and a knowledge of Him to this world and the people in this world.
