It’s been forever and a day since I posted on here! Life has just been happening and quite honestly I’ve been a lot more active on Instagram than I have on here. So sorry!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A few months ago, a friend and former choir member at church who follows my blog asked me an interesting question:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“Where are the hymns?”<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

I must have seemed confused because she explained, “Hymns & Home – I’ve seen a lot of the home part, but where are the hymns?”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I explained that I chose the name “Hymns & Home” because I felt it well represented two major parts of who I am: a church musician and a wife\/mom\/homemaker. The blog was really just intended to be about home decor & DIY.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But it got me thinking… Why not?<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Hymns and their rich, meaningful texts are such a big part of my life and who I am that surely there is some way they could be included here. Well, with all this pandemic stuff going on the last few months, my mind has been drawn over and over again to a particular hymn text: “I Am Trusting Thee, Lord Jesus.” Let me share a few stanzas with you:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I am trusting Thee, Lord Jesus, Trusting only Thee;
Trusting Thee for full salvation, Great and free.

I am trusting Thee to guide me; Thou alone shalt lead,
Ev’ry day and hour supplying All my need.

I am trusting Thee, Lord Jesus; Never let me fall.
I am trusting Thee forever And for all.<\/em>

– Frances R. Havergal<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

This hymn speaks of the many ways Jesus provides for us and how we can fully trust Him to: grant us salvation, pardon and cleanse us from sin, guide us through life, give us His Holy Word, uphold and sustain us in this life and the next.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As much as this hymn has stuck in my head, I thought it fitting to create a FREE PRINTABLE<\/strong> for you all, just in case it would be of comfort and assurance to some of you! Just click one of the links below to download it. I am making this available to anyone – you don’t need to be a subscriber to get it. (For personal use only, please – no selling or modifying.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

God does not promise we will not encounter hardships in this life, but He does promise to be with us all the way. Most importantly, He promises us eternal life through the saving work of His son, Jesus Christ. I pray that wherever you are in the midst of this chaos that you would find peace, joy, and assurance from the One in whom we can fully trust.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
