Look to the Deliverer! His love and hope in His mercy, when thou art at the lowest ebb, may keep up thy head above the billows!

Oh, look not at thy pain or sorrow, how great soever; but look from them, look off them, look beyond them, to the Deliverer! whose power is over them, and whose loving, wise, and tender spirit is able to do thee good by them. The Lord lead thee, day by day, in the right way, and keep thy mind stayed upon Him, in whatever befalls thee; that the belief of His love and hope in His mercy, when thou art at the lowest ebb, may keep up thy head above the billows.

—I. Penington

Look to the Deliverer! His love and hope in His mercy, when thou art at the lowest ebb, may keep up thy head above the billow! What a poem above! I love it! A great reminder! Always look to our Deliverer! Accept His will be done in our lives! Follow Jesus! Reflect, forgive, imitate, and love like Him! The love of God, the hope we can have in Him, His mercy, yes during our hard times can always help to elevate us in times of trouble and hardship. God is great! He loves us so much! He wants to deliver us! He wants the best for us! He wants us to follow His example in Jesus, our gift to us and humanity so that we become like Him! To live like Him and love like Him! Jesus! We can have salvation, we can be delivered when we look always to our Lord!
