"Whom have I in heaven but thee? and there is none upon earth that I desire beside thee."

"...and your joy no man taketh from you."

What is actually our possesion? What is actually completely ours? Life, food, rainment, a house, a fellowship with dear brethren, children, parents, a job... the list goes on. This much I know, none of these are ours. But there is one thing no man taketh away... whether I am in prison or at freedom, whether I have friends or no friends, whether I have church or can't find a church, whether I have a Bible or have no Bible... IT IS GOD! Nobody can take Him from me and nobody can take me from Him! "I am my Beloved's and my Beloved is mine!"

"And I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand."

"For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come, Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord." AMEN!

WHEN GOD IS ALL YOU HAVE

Have you lost your health
And your wealth has faded away
Alone and forsaken, you have lost your way
Cry out for mercy, go to your knees in prayer
I know you'll find God is always there

When God is all you have
You'll find He is all you need
You may not understand
But you're right where you should be
Alone with God in the presence of grace
Whatever you've lost, He will replace
When God is all you have
You'll find He is all you need

You'll find in these moments
The strength to make it through
Whatever you're facing, God will be with you
In the midst of the storm, He is peace to your soul
Be still and you'll find you are never alone

When God is all you have
You'll find He is all you need
You may not understand
But you're right where you should be
Alone with God in the presence of grace
Whatever you've lost, He will replace
When God is all you have
You'll find He is all you need


Wonderful hymn! But even when you are not broken financially... but in your heart: you come to understand that the Only reason you live and find strength to live is GOD, is Christ! There is another hymn I also love very much:
"All my springs are in you!" I've heard it in German and Russian but I don't know whether there is a version in English.
