"Many are my persecutors and my adversaries, but I do not swerve from your testimonies."
Psalm 119:157 ESV
Again and again, God has been faithful to watch over me and protect me with His powerful yet tender hands...
Psalm 119:157 ESV
Again and again, God has been faithful to watch over me and protect me with His powerful yet tender hands...
He has kept me safe from those who wish me harm, who speak evil against me, and wish to stir up problems for me. As King David declared in his many writings, "I am a hated man. Yet I have refused to yield to my enemies. Nor have I given myself over to despair. On the contrary, I will continue to declare the love, goodness, and faithfulness of my God."
I want this to be my declaration as well. God loves me. He sent His one and only Son, Jesus, to die as payment for my sins and crimes. The Lord Jesus, who with the joy that was set before Him, endured the shame and the pain of the cross, and went on to accomplish the mission for which He was sent.
Therefore, I too want to accomplish the work that my heavenly Father has for me. This being to proclaim His goodness, and mercy, and compassion to a troubled world.
He is a faithful God indeed.
