John 8:31-32
To the Jews who had believed him, Jesus said, “If you hold to my teaching, you are really my disciples. Then you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.”
‘Tis So Sweet to Trust in Jesus” is a Christian hymn with music by William J. Kirkpatrick and lyrics by Louisa M. R. Stead. The lyrics were written in 1882.
’Tis so sweet to trust in Jesus,
Just to take Him at His Word;
Just to rest upon His promise,
Just to know, “Thus says the Lord!”
Refrain:
Jesus, Jesus, how I trust Him!
How I’ve proved Him o’er and o’er
Jesus, Jesus, precious Jesus!
O for grace to trust Him more!
Even though I am in my 40’s, my daddy still offers to buy me an ice cream cone when I have worked hard to accomplish something. I am not kidding! When I brought home A’s while working on my doctorate, I got ice cream! The thing is, it was never about the cone. It was about spending time with my dad and knowing he was proud of me. When we are following Jesus and His teachings we are rewarded with the truth. The truth is, He love us and cares for us. He is always there for us. We are never alone, even on are darkest days. That is the sweet truth!
