Blessed assurance, Jesus is mine;
Oh, what a foretaste of glory divine!
Heir of salvation, purchase of God,
Born of His Spirit, washed in His blood.
This is my story, this is my song,
Praising my Savior all the day long.
This is my story, this is my song,
Praising my Savior all the day long.
2
Perfect submission, perfect delight,
Visions of rapture now burst on my sight;
Angels descending, bring from above
Echoes of mercy, whispers of love.
This is my story, this is my song,
Praising my Savior all the day long.
This is my story, this is my song,
Praising my Savior all the day long.
3
Perfect submission, all is at rest,
I in my Savior am happy and blest;
Watching and waiting, looking above,
Filled with His goodness, lost in His love.
This is my story, this is my song,
Praising my Savior all the day long.
This is my story, this is my song,
Praising my Savior all the day long.

Often times, I am prone to sing without realizing the depth and the abundance of riches in the song. Now as I sing these words “ Foretaste of glory divine” I am realizing our Loving Saviour’s glorious plan for each one of us- that live our lives enjoying His presence growing deeper. It’s possible only when we submit our lives more abs more to God. Oh we love you Jesus, oh how we love you.

The Lord gave me this song as a celebration for a family friend that went home to be with the Lord.
I will miss my friend Rico greatly but he accepted Jesus Christ as his Lord and Savior so even though my heart is heavy.
I know I will see him again when I am called home myself.
This simple prayer said outloud
Father God thank you for sending Your Son Jesus to die in my place.
I ask forgiveness for all my sins. I repent.
Write my name in Your Book of Life.
I ask the Holy Spirit to live inside of me.
In Jesus Holy name I ask this Amen.

Blessed assurance, Jesus is Mine. I believe in the faithfulness of God, that he would grant me my own husband in this month of March. I’ll sing this song to remind him of his assurance that this year is my year of marital settlement. This is my story and it will forever be my song, IJN, Amen.

Sure all is at rest. When with God as perfect assurance, I lack nothing and am comfortable getting lost in God's love. All am doing is looking and waiting, all from above.

I was at a very good friend’s Mother’s funeral yesterday. We were sitting in the church awaiting the arrival of the family members. As we waited, one of our Pastors asked the worship team to sing, so we could just spend some time ministering to the Lord. This song was the first song (not on the list) which was sung.
I gave my life to the Lord in my 30’s, I didn’t attend church before that. The song lyrics were unfamiliar to me, but I was familiar with the chorus.
The past few months have been challenging, spiritually and physically. My Mum passed away 9 years ago, and she would always reassure me, my siblings and everyone who God brought her way, always. In all circumstances she had words of wisdom, which I now know were directly from the word. (read her Bible every morning, but didn’t attend church)
As I sang the song yesterday I remembered where I’d heard the song. My Mum would sing the chorus at the top of her voice, “This is my story” whenever she received news that may have caused others to breakdown.
I’d never really heard the rest of the song.
I’ve just written down the lyrics, as I believe the Lord was encouraging me that I am not alone in the storm. That He has always been with me through all of the challenges, He’s never left me and will never forsake me. He was reassuring me, like my Mum would have, to keep my eyes fixed on Him.
Jesus truly is our blessed assurance... this truly is my story.

This song gave me strength at the news of my daughter’s dear friend passing.
It dropped into my spirit as I tried to ease her grief. I sang it over and over to comfort her spirit. It one of my favorite hymns.
