PROMISE FOR DECEMBER 23RD

"Like as a father pitieth his children, so the Lord pitieth those that fear Him. For He knoweth our frame; He remembereth that we are dust." Psalm 103:13-14

He invites us to confide in Him as children...in full assurance of His loving interest, even in our smallest affairs. R. 3161, c.2, p.1.

A Further word from the mouth of God assures us that He knows our frame, He remembers that we are dust--weak, imperfect, dying; and that it is not His purpose that we shall continue always to be in conflict with ourselves--perfect will against imperfect body; but that He has provided that, in the resurrection, we shall have new, perfect bodies, in full accord with our new minds. R. 4897, c.2, p.6.
