IT’S UNFAILING, IT’S UNCONDITIONAL AND IT’S OURS

Psalm 42:8 But each day the Lord pours his unfailing love upon me,…

Whatever day we’re reading this we can know it’s a day that the Lord is pouring His love out on us, wherever we are in the world, and it doesn’t change with our moods or our behaviour. It doesn’t change whether life has been easy or if it’s really tough right now. His love is unfailing, it’s unconditional and it’s ours. I can’t think of anything else you can say that about!

In fact we can go out into our world with the thought wrapped round us that God is pouring His love out on us all the time and it won’t fail us. As you go out your front door - ‘God’s love won’t fail me.’ As you get in the car - ‘My God loves me.’ As you go to work or school - ‘God is pouring out His love and favour on me.’ As I sit at home - ‘Thank You Lord Your love will never fail me.’🥰

Psalm 59:16 …. Each morning I will sing with joy about your unfailing love. For you have been my refuge, a place of safety when I am in distress.

The Psalmist liked to sing about God’s love and it might help us to do the same. It reminded him how God is the One he could go to any time of day and night especially when he’d been upset, when he was distressed about life. 

We can all identify with his feelings when life is tough, or when we see and hear things that disturb us, but we can know we have a place of refuge too - it’s the Lord Himself. He actively encourages us to come to His throne, even if we’ve been the cause of our own upset, to receive His mercy and forgiveness, to find peace, or the help we need to deal with everything else, to find the way forward.

But most of all let’s remember throughout our coming week, throughout each day, that the Lord is pouring His unfailing love out on us and we can go to Him any time and His arms will be open and His ears will be listening and He has promised to help us. Amen thank You Lord.
