“He Is So UNFAILING”
Psalm 115: 1 NLT
Not to us, O Lord, not to us, but to your name goes all the glory for your unfailing love and faithfulness”
A few weeks back, we sang a song at church called “This We Know” by Vertical Worship. The last few words of the chorus are “Jesus, You are unfailing”. As I pondered that day and still ponder days and weeks after, I think of all the things in life that fail us.
We get our hopes up for so many things in life that end up disappointing us and letting us down. We look forward to things and events that are coming up, but then something goes wrong and we’re left heartbroken. People make promises and then break them. We put a lot of hope into electronic gadgets that we buy, hoping they will never break, but they often do or lose connection. Our vehicles break down and need repair. People break our hearts. We lose our jobs. Moms lose their baby.
The list could go on and on of the terrible heartbreaks that set us back and make us question why God allows so much to happen when we dedicate our lives to serving Him. But remember that Jesus never promised us an easy life if we follow Him. He promised just the opposite. He wants us to put our hope in Him alone. Everything in life and everyone will, in some way, fail us somehow. Maybe intentionally or unintentionally, but still will.
We need to be reminded always that God is 100% loving and faithful. That will never change. His love and faithfulness will remain forever. That’s great news when we look around and see so many horrible things going wrong in life today. We need something constant and that won’t break our heart….again!
He will NEVER fail us. As much as I’ve been hurt by plans failing and by other people, I know that God will never fail me. I may not understand why He allows things to happen as He does, but I know He’s never going to fail me. I can count on Him no matter what.
He is so UNFAILING!
