Kingdom of "opposites"

I'm always captivated by the concept of the "kingdom of opposites". Let me share a few biblical concepts with you from one of my songs.

Rest for the weary
Strength for the weak
Hope for the hopeless
Peace in times of trouble

The first shall be last
And the last shall be first
The least shall be greatest
And the greatest the least

Joy for sadness
Freedom from shame
Beauty for ashes
Healing from our pain

Little is much in His hands
Little is much in His hands

Hi George, Just to keep in touch. We didnt make it out to any of the meetings as Gareth has been suffering pain from Saturday, were really struggling in this testing time. Although we know our redeemer suffered a lot more when he bore our sins and then God raised him up and took him to glory. These facts tell us that its an honour to be tested and we cant wait for the glory of God, because its only round the corner. We love this kingdom of opposites, after reading these words i know God brought me to this blog tonight i havent been on the blog much lately as weve been so busy but i felt the spirit move me tonight to read them and this one spoke to me.Hopefully see you all soon. Thankyou to our family at PCC for all the prayer sent up for us. God bless you all. x
