“The Unfailing Love of the Lord”

unfailing love

Jesus said, ” I will in no wise fail thee, neither will I in any wise forsake thee.”    Oh the power of His unfailing love.    He has promised to be with us no matter what.   Mother Teresa said is to beautifully,
 
 
“What is important is that you are
holding on, 
that you have a grip on Christ and
He will not let your hand go.”
 
 

May we have such a determination to hold fast to our faith in Him and His unfailing love.   The scripture I want to share with you today is from 2 Corinthians 4:7-11 from the Easy-to-Read Version.

“We have this treasure from God, but we are only like clay jars that hold the treasure. This is to show that the amazing power we have is from God, not from us.  We have troubles all around us, but we are not defeated. We often don’t know what to do, but we don’t give up.  We are persecuted, but God does not leave us. We are hurt sometimes, but we are not destroyed.  So we constantly experience the death of Jesus in our own bodies, but this is so that the life of Jesus can also be seen in our bodies.”

 
 
Today let us meditate upon we have been molded for the use of the Master.   We are as clay jars that hold the treasure which is to show amazing and wonderful things to all around us.   Let us not be discouraged when all hell seems to be coming against us but rather let us determine that we will hold  on to Jesus’ hand for He and His unfailing love has promised to never let go!   We are more than conquerors!
