I had made mistakes that had badly hurt others, and I felt very shaken. The song takes the form of a gentle lullaby, reminding us that whatever befalls us, we have a refuge, a safe place, a sanctuary we can abide in.<\/p>\n<p>What I most love about the Gospel is that it is a simple &#8220;come to me&#8221; message, that we don&#8217;t need to learn, earn or win our inheritance, we simply need to receive it! For many years I have had the privilege of working closely with adults who have learning disabilities. I have received so much in this time. I have found joy and freedom in their friendship and enlightenment as I have felt Christ at work in their lives. The transformational birth, death and resurrection of Jesus doesn&#8217;t need to be studied like a scholar or dissected like a surgeon.\u00a0 It is like a beautiful pattern, like a glorious jigsaw puzzle. It fits all hearts, all peoples and surpasses all things generational, physical or mental. Wow!! How remarkable is the power of God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Spirit? The three-in-one is like a \u00a0dance we are caught up in, receiving the love and forgiveness of the Father, following the call and example of Jesus, and then allowing the Spirit of God to transform us and live deeply within us. It is my prayer that &#8220;This I Know&#8221; will lead you into that place of deep security and transformation:-<\/p>\n<p><em>&#8220;Even when the earth is breaking, You abide.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>Even if I fail, I&#8217;m shaken, there is life, life in You, hope in You&#8221;.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"embed-youtube\" style=\"text-align:center; display: block;\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" class=\"youtube-player\" width=\"625\" height=\"352\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/gYNPlF6qFOw?version=3&#038;rel=1&#038;showsearch=0&#038;showinfo=1&#038;iv_load_policy=1&#038;fs=1&#038;hl=en-US&#038;autohide=2&#038;wmode=transparent\" allowfullscreen=\"true\" style=\"border:0;\" sandbox=\"allow-scripts allow-same-origin allow-popups allow-presentation\"><\/iframe><\/span><\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s possible to download and keep this film in HD for a small sum by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.prayerscapes.com\/FilmPages\/this_i_know.html\">clicking on this link.<\/a><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.paypalobjects.com\/en_GB\/i\/scr\/pixel.gif\" alt=\"\" width=\"1\" height=\"1\" border=\"0\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8220;This I Know&#8221; is a song that came to me in a moment of confusion.
