Jesus Christ will guide us all the way home

​I just finished leading and singing at a Hymn Sing for many people.  One of the hymns we sang is among my absolute favorites.  Here is the story that inspired these words to this hymn-  “God Leads His Dear Children Along”
George A. Young was an itinerant preacher and carpenter.  He lived with a meager salary.   After years of saving for a home, he with the help of his wife, constructed a home for their family.  
They decided to go with the entire family on a week of meetings where George Young spoke.  They were triumphant meetings, but when they returned home after the meetings, they found their dream home had been burned to ashes by some young men who were angry with the Truth George Young was preaching.  The Young family were devastated.  After days of dealing with this blow, Mr. And Mrs. Young, with their young boys, found peace.  They knew that no matter what happens in life a true believer in Jesus Christ can find victory.  George Young then penned these words:
”In shady green pastures, so rich and so sweet
God leads His dear children along
Where the water’s cool flow
Bathes the weary one’s feet
God leads His dear children along
Chorus:  Some thro’ the waters
Some thro’ the flood
Some through the fire
But all thro’ the blood
Some thro’ great sorrow
But God gives a song
In the night season and all the day long

O, how kind and gentle our precious Savior is-  to know that He will direct our paths. 
Dear people, remember “The steps of a man are established by the Lord, when he delights in his way;”
(Psalm 37:23). Also, Psalm 31:3 “For you are my rock and fortress; and for your name’s sake you lead me and guide me”.
