Day 1 - Week 31 - Another verse of praise!

We'll  add another verse of praise tonight!  Don't you love these verses expressing honor to our God and Father?  These verses just confirm in our hearts the greatness and wonder of the God in whom we profess our faith.  I need to just spend moments reflecting on them throughout the day to bring to my mind the reality of the unseen and how incredibly powerful and holy our unseen God is!

But...before we add a new verse...let's make sure we have our past verses firmly planted!  Let's see how well we can do.......

Praise and Thanksgiving (4)

1 Peter 1:3  Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ.  According to His great mercy He has given us a new birth into a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead.

Psalm 100:4  Enter His gates with thanksgiving and His courts with praise.  Give thanks to Him and praise His name.

 

And now our third of the four verses of Praise and Thanksgiving...

 

Psalm 100:5  For the LORD is good and his love endures forever; his faithfulness continues through all generations.

 

Is it as reassuring to you as it is to me that God is not just here for me and you in this time and place, but He will be here for our grandchildren and our great grandchildren, for He is faithful and will be faithful to His promises to men through all generations.  Until Christ returns, God will remain faithful in the extension of His goodness and love to this world.  So no matter how we may get discouraged at the direction that this world is taking, be assured that God will always be near to those who seek Him.  He is near, and He is good!  Believing that gives my heart  a sense of peace regarding our very uncertain future...

 

For the Lord is good and His love endures forever; his faithfulness continues through all generation!

 

Thank You Lord for your amazing faithfulness to a very unfaithful child!  Thank You Lord for your love that I will never be able to understand.  You are good!!
