About Rachel

"Come now, and let us reason together," says the Lord, "Though your sins are like scarlet, they shall be white as snow; though they are red like crimson, they shall be as wool. If you are willing and obedient you shall eat the good of the land; but if you refuse and rebel, you shall be devoured by the sword"; for the mouth of the Lord has spoken." Isaiah 1:18-20

  3. Amen, Rachel! God is sufficient for all of our sorrows. When He lifts us up, we are lifted to heights of joy, in spite of what’s going on in our lives!

    “He giveth more grace when the burdens grow greater.
    He addeth more strength when the labors increase.
    To added afflictions, He addeth His mercy,
    To multiplied trials, His multiplied peace!”

    The words to the hymn may be off a bit because I couldn’t remember the title to look it up, but it’s a beautiful song of comfort; He giveth and giveth and giveth again!
