Bible Reading: Psalm 147:11
For the next two days we are going to do what that verse says and celebrate God's unfailing love.
Today's Bible reading says, "the Lord delights in those who fear him, who put their hope in his unfailing love."
Human love isn't perfect. People "fall in love" then they "fall out of love." People choose to show their love or to withhold their love on a whim. Human love is based on conditions -- If you show me love, I'll show you love."
God's love is different. The book of Psalms describes love as unfailing at least 27 times. For example, Psalm 6:4 says, "How priceless is your unfailing love! Both high and low among men find refuge in the shadow of your wings."
God's unfailing love is always at work in our lives healing our hearts and wounds, protecting and preserving us, hearing and answering our prayers, supporting and comforting us during difficult times, giving us victory over our troubles and trials, and rescuing us from our earthly and spiritual enemies.
I hope you have Jesus as your Lord and Savior. If you do, you can be assured that God's unfailing love is active in your life every day!
"But the eyes of the Lord are on those who fear him, on those whose hope is in his unfailing love." Psalm 33:18
Prayer: Heavenly Father, thank You for Your unfailing love. I'm so glad it is present in my life. In Jesus' name. Amen.
