Dear Friends,
The news is shocking. It was a country music festival. Thousands gathered to hear the singing. Suddenly, thirty-two stories above, they heard the sounds of gun fire. According to the news accounts, 59 people were killed and over 500 were wounded. Is there any where you and I can be safe? Today’s devotional will help you find the answer. God bless you.

Because of Calvary,
John Janney

• Matthew 11:28-30 (ESV)

  28 Come to me, all who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. 29 Take my yoke upon you, and learn from me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. 30 For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.”

 “WHERE COULD I GO BUT TO THE LORD?

“Living below in this old sinful world

Hardly a comfort can afford

Striving alone to face temptation so

Where could I go but to the Lord?

Life here is grand with friends I love so dear

Comfort I get from God’s own Word

Yet when I face that chilling hand of death

Where could I go but to the Lord?

Where could I go oh where could I go

Seeking the refuge for my soul

Needing a friend to save me in the end

Where could I go but to the Lord?”
