But He giveth more grace. James 4:6
He giveth more grace when the burdens grow greater,
He sendeth more strength when the labors increase;
To added afflictions He addeth His mercy,
To multiplied trials, His multiplied peace
When we have exhausted our store of endurance,
When our strength has failed ere the day is half done,
When we reach the end of our hoarded resources,
Our Father’s full giving is only begun.
Fear not that thy need shall exceed His provision,
Our God ever yearns His resources to share;
Lean hard on the arm everlasting, availing—
The Father both thee and thy load will upbear.
His love has no limits, His grace has no measure,
His power no boundary known unto men;
For, out of His infinite riches in Jesus,
He giveth, and giveth, and giveth again.
A. J. Flint
Annie Johnson Flint (1866-1932) wrote from her own painful and joyful experience with God. She was deprived of both of her parents in her youth and had hardly attained adulthood before she was so severely afflicted with arthritis that she could no longer earn a living or even live without help. Having trusted Christ in her youth, she turned to the Lord in her affliction and began expressing her soul in poetry. She soon found that others appreciated her poetry as well, and the publication of her poems earned her much respect and many friends in her lifetime. Other popular poems by Annie are:
“A Very Present Help”
“His Lamp Am I”
“One Day at a Time”
“What God Hath Promised”
“When Thou Passest Through the Waters”
