Pardon for sin and a peace that endureth, Thine own dear presence to cheer and to guide; Strength for today and bright hope for tomorrow, Blessings all mine, with ten thousand beside!The words of the beloved hymn “Great is Thy Faithfulness” was written by Rev. Thomas O. Chisholm in 1923. He was ordained a Methodist minister in 1903, but served only a single, brief appointment at Scottsville, Kentucky, due to ill health. Despite this unexpected adversity, Rev. Chisholm saw God’s faithful hand in the gifts that still surrounded him, and it was in that spirit of generous gratitude he not only survived, but he thrived!This three-week stewardship series uses both the Psalms and this classic hymn, to guide, encourage, and challenge us to be faithful caretakers of the gifts we’ve been given. As together, we love boldly, serve joyfully, lead courageously, and give generously, the ministries of First UMC will THRIVE!
