God’s Love is Steadfast
“O give thanks to the Lord, for he is good, for his steadfast love endures forever.” Psalms 136:1 NRSV
God in three persons - Father, Son, and Holy Spirit- exist outside time's boundaries. Therefore, His love is not bound by time. Again and again, we see His steadfast love on display. Psalm 86:5 tells us that God is "good and forgiving, abounding in steadfast love to all who call" on His name. And again, in Psalm 136:1, we are to "give thanks to the Lord, for he is good, for his steadfast love endures forever."
When we fall short of God's perfect plan for our lives, through our sin and disobedience, we can take comfort in the words of the prophet Joel. "Return to the Lord, your God, for he is gracious and merciful, slow to anger, and abounding in steadfast love, and relents from punishing (Joel 2:13)."
Regardless if you are close to God or have drifted in your current season of life, run to Jesus. Run into His loving arms, trusting that His love for you is steadfast.
