HIS FAITHFULNESS

“It is of the LORD’S mercies that we are not consumed, because his compassions fail not.  They are new every morning: great is thy faithfulness.  The LORD is my portion, saith my soul; therefore will I hope in him.  The LORD is good unto them that wait for him, to the soul that seeketh him.”

Lamentations 3:22-25 KJV

We know that God is faithful.  He proves His faithfulness to us every day by protecting us from danger.  I wonder how faithful we are to Him every day.  Does He know we love Him by our service and our faithfulness to Him?  Do we serve Him every day or just when it is convenient for us?

Our precious Heavenly Father proved to us how much He loves us when He gave His beloved Son to die on the cross for our sins.  Jesus proved to us how much He loves us when He willingly walked that long lonely road to Calvary and allowed them to crucify Him on the cross for our sins.

Jesus didn’t have to come to earth and die on the cross.  Jesus willingly left His Father, His home and all that He had to come to earth and die for our sins.  Jesus set the example for us when He fulfilled the mission His Father had given Him.  You and I also need to be faithful and finish the mission God has given us.

Heavenly Father, I love You with all of my heart.  Thank You for Your faithfulness to us.  Please help us to be faithful to You and finish the mission You have given us.  Jesus, thank You for setting the example for us by finishing the mission Your Father gave You.  In Jesus’ Name, I pray.  Amen.
