We attended Adult Bible class at 9.30 a.m. Mrs. Lim Li Ching, did her second lesson this year - the subject "New Testament Prophecy" Her two studies relate to my series on Revelation. I shall recommence our studies on this book next Sunday.
Our Sunday worship was conducted by our Corps Officer (pastor) Major Ruth Pascoe. Her message was based on the verse, "Come to Me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take My yoke upon you and learn of Me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For My yoke is easy and My burden in light" Matthew 11: 28-30. She divided the message into four segments:
Come to Me
Take my yoke
Learn from Me
Rest for your soul is the result.
The meeting ended with the singing of this beautiful song sung to the tune of Brahms' Lullaby.
Let thy heart be at rest.
For the Father is shown
In the love of the Master
Whose work is made known:
Only walk in his way
And thy soul shall be free,
For the peace of the Lord
Shall be laid upon thee.
Let thy heart be at rest
When life's pathway runs steep,
And with death there's a tryst
That the body must keep:
Though the future is veiled
Thou shalt not be afraid,
For the peace of the Lord
On thy heart has been laid.
He has journeyed before thee,
A place to prepare;
Now the Comforter gives thee
To be with him there:
In the heart of the Father
Thy dwelling shall be,
For the peace of the Lord
Has been laid upon thee.
Isn't it wonderful to have the peace of the Lord. Isn't it wonderful that when we meet for worship on a Sunday like this, our Lord is among us and in us? What a privilege it is to belong to The Salvation Army, part of the universal church of Jesus Christ.
