MESSAGE:
Our God is extremely good. He is goodness personified. The whole world benefits daily from His goodness (Psalms 107:15).
It is because of this goodness that you are always guaranteed help from Him; He never forsakes His own.
Are you having issues with your studies? Call on God and He will help you. Is it difficult to keep up with house chores? Call on God and He will help you.

Is there someone bullying or threatening you? Call on God and He will help you. When He steps in to help you, you will have complete rest.
Not even your family or friends can help you like God will. You must however note that God does not give the food of children to dogs (Matthew 15:26).

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR:
PSALM 107-108, ROMANS 15:22-33
Hymn 6
1. Our God, our help in ages past,
Our hope for years to come,
Our shelter from the stormy blast,
And our eternal home:
2. Under the shadow of your throne
Your saints have dwelt secure;
Sufficient is your arm alone,
And our defense is sure
3. Before the hills in order stood
Or earth received its frame,
From everlasting you are God,
To endless years the same.
4. A thousand ages in your sight
Are like an evening gone
Short as the watch that ends the night
Before the rising sun.
5. Time, like an ever-rolling stream,
Soon bears us all away;
We fly forgotten, as a dream
Does at the opening day.
6. Our God, our help in ages past,
Our hope for years to come,
Still be our guard while troubles last,
And our eternal home!
