“His Faithful Love Is Always Toward Us”
 
 
as deep as the sea
 
by Dona Hake
 
 
Psalm 42:8 (CEB)
“By day the Lord commands his faithful love;
by night his song is with me—
a prayer to the God of my life.”
 

This scripture reminds me that from the time I awaken till I lay my head down to sleep that I should simply praise His Name because He commands His faithful love toward me.    As I ponder this I think about all that can happen in a day that can distract me from meditating upon His love.  Sometimes we  encounter difficult situations and pressures within our day that make it hard to keep praise to Him in our hearts.  Yet, the Lord desires that there is an offering of praise proceeding from our hearts no matter what is going on around us.  As His faithful love is constantly toward us, we too should be loving Him with all of our being!

Psalm 113:3 (CEV)
” From dawn until sunset
the name of the Lord
deserves to be praised.”
 
May we ask Him for a greater understanding and revelation that He is with us all the time as He promises to never leave or forsake us. No matter what happened today or what you have to face tomorrow…NOTHING can keep you from offering praise to the Living God! So today, think about the great oceans and their depth…His love for you is deeper than the deepest sea!
 
“I’m absolutely convinced that nothing—nothing living or dead, angelic or demonic, today or tomorrow, high or low, thinkable or unthinkable—absolutely nothing can get between us and God’s love because of the way that Jesus our Master has embraced us. ”
Romans 8:39 (The Message)
