“O Lord, you are so good, so ready to forgive, so full of unfailing love for all who ask for your help.”
Psalm 86:5
Newsflash…. God is on your side. He is not against you, He not sitting in Heaven pointing His finger at you waiting for you to slip up and to condemn you. On the contrary, God is your number supporter. He is willing you on in life’s race, ready to pick you up if you fall, answering your prayers, and carrying you when you have no energy left. If your image of God is not any of these, then you have misunderstood who God is.
There is a reason why God is constantly referred to as Abba Father in the bible. Why? Because He is our loving, kind and gracious Father. Even when situation may look bad, look like there is no hope, God is still working in the background to bless you and make a way out for you His child. He is so good. He is full of unfailing, unwavering and unending committed love. His love never runs out even if you behave badly, even if you make wrong choices or even if you you don’t want to believe it. His Fatherly heart is always caring for His children. His love is just always there, our job is to accept it.
Know this day that whatever you may be going through, God is on your side, willing you on, ready to forgive and pick you back up again, free you from bondage and is leading you to His Son Jesus Christ. God’s love is consistent and best of all, free!! As the old saying goes, God is good all the time and all the time God is good. He never changes even when our circumstances do. Put your trust, hopes and desires in Him and let Him transform your life.
