Day 16 - "God's Unfailing Love and Faithfulness" - Morning Light Devotional
Psalms 117:1 (NLT) Praise the LORD, all you nations. Praise him, all you people of the earth. 2 For he loves us with unfailing love; the faithfulness of the LORD endures forever. Praise the LORD!
This verse from Psalms 117 reminds me of how little God asks of us in contrast to how much He gives us.
It is amazing that we are the recipients of God's “unfailing love” and a divine faithfulness that endures forever. If you have ever been on the receiving end of failing love, you know what I mean. If you have ever witnessed people make lame excuses, break their promises, or walk out of your life, you have experienced failed love and unfaithfulness. Of course, if someone's love has failed, faithfulness doesn't have a chance. Selfishness weakens human love, causing it to fail. At the same time, we must examine ourselves in this regard.
More importantly, you are also blessed to know people who love you with God's unfailing love.
These circumstances serve to remind us in Whom to place our ultimate confidence. It's okay to trust people, but that trust should never exceed our confidence in the One whose love absolutely never fails, who never offers excuses, and who will never walk away from you.
If you are thankful to the Lord for His unfailing love and enduring faithfulness, take a little time right now and do what David said, “Praise the Lord!”
