Hello ,
For the Word of the Lord is upright, and all His work is done in faithfulness. - Psalm 33:4
Where would you and I be without God's
faithfulness through every phase of our lives?
This weekend, my wife and I will be celebrating 40 years since our high school graduation. It hardly seems possible that this much time could've passed, but we do have a daughter who is almost 30, so it must be true.
When I look back over my life I can see that God has been so faithful to me. I've done so many stupid things, and I should (honestly) have been dead long ago (if left up to my own devices).
God's faithfulness isn't dependent on my ability to hold onto Him. My ability to hold onto Him is dependent upon His faithfulness.
Take a few moments today, pause and reflect on God's faithfulness in your own life. What are some places that He has brought you through that gave evidence (either
then, or later on) that caused you to say, "God showed up!" ?
It's such a good thing to recall His faithfulness to us. It can give us strength for today, and hope for tomorrow.
Have a great day and God bless!
