199. RESTING IN HIS LOVE

1. God has shown His loving face

From His throne in heav’n above:

And I’ve found a resting-place,

In the shelter of His love.

Chorus:

I am resting, resting, resting,

Resting sweetly resting in His love;

I am resting in His love,

Resting in the shelter of His love

2. When the cares of life oppress,

When the sky is dark above;

I can always find a rest,

In the shelter of His love.

3. O, if you were never blest,

With this peace from heav’n above;

There’s for you a wondrous rest;

In the shelter of His love.

GOSPEL REALM: STEPS TO SALVATION
1. Admit that you are a sinner. "For all [humans] have sinned, and comes short of the glory of God....[and] the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord" (Romans 3:23)
2. Repent now. "Repent ye therefore, and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out ...[for] if we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness " (Acts 3:19, 1 John 1:9)
3. Believe that God loves you and Jesus died for you. "God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet Sinners, Christ died for us" (Romans 5:8)
4. Invite Jesus into your life through prayer of faith. Jesus says, "Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me" (Revelation 3:20)
