In His Footsteps

IN HIS FOOTSTEPS
by HELEN STEINER RICE







WHEN SOMEONE DOES A KINDNESS
IT ALWAYS SEEMS TO ME
THAT'S THE WAY GOD UP IN HEAVEN
WOULD LIKE US ALL TO BE...
FOR WHEN WE BRING SOME PLEASURE
TO ANOTHER HUMAN HEART,
WE HAVE FOLLOWED IN HIS FOOTSTEPS
AND WE'VE HAD A LITTLE PART
IN SERVING HIM WHO LOVES US-
FOR I AM VERY SURE IT'S TRUE
THAT IN SERVING THOSE AROUND US
WE SERVE AND PLEASE HIM, TOO.





HE HAS MADE HIS WONDERFUL
WORKS TO BE REMEMBERED;
THE LORD IS GRACIOUS AND FULL OF
COMPASSION.



PSALM 111:4
NKJV



LORD, DO NOT HOLD BACK YOUR MERCY FROM ME;
LET YOUR LOVE AND TRUTH ALWAYS PROTECT ME.



PSALM 40:11
NCV



THE LORD IS GOOD TO EVERYONE.
HE SHOWERS COMPASSION ON ALL HIS CREATION.



PSALM 145:9
NLT



AS A FATHER HAS COMPASSION ON HIS CHILDREN,
SO THE LORD HAS COMPASSION ON
THOSE WHO FEAR HIM.



PSALM 103:13
NIV



HAVE PITY ON ME, O GOD, IN KEEPING
WITH YOUR MERCY.
IN KEEPING WITH YOUR UNLIMITED COMPASSION,
WIPE OUT MY REBELLIOUS ACTS.



PSALM 51:1
GOD'S WORD
