“But the steadfast love of the Lord is from everlasting to everlasting on those who fear him, and his righteousness to children’s children, to those who keep his covenant and remember to do his commandments.” – Psalm 103:17-18
What’s the thing you have had the longest?
I have a box with things from my childhood. There are some drawings, some pictures, and some toys. These things all have some sentimental value, but they will eventually fade. They will eventually crumble.
Nothing lasts forever.
Nothing, that is, except the steadfast love of the Lord. It is from everlasting to everlasting. It never ends. God’s children, those who have faith in Jesus Christ, live in that love and it will keep us forever in Him.
What Will You Hold On To?
Most of us have things we hold on to. That’s fine, but we should even more firmly hold onto God’s love. More importantly, God’s love holds on to us. In fact…
“For I am sure that neither death nor life, nor angels nor rulers, nor things present nor things to come, nor powers, nor height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus our Lord.” – Romans 8:38-39
Heavenly Father,
Your love is greater than all things. It never ends. Hold me in Your love until Your return when we shall live with You forever.
Amen.
In Christ’s Service,
Pastor Kurt
