Daily Thoughts To Think About

Finally, brothers, whatever is honorable, whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is commendable, if there is any excellance, if there is anything worthy of praise, think about these things. - Philippians 4:8

He's Been Faithful

Good Morning!

As I type today’s Good Morning, I am listening to Damaris Carbaugh and the Brooklyn Tabernacle Choir sing “He’s Been Faithful To Me”. The song is one of my many favorites … one I used to sing when I was in a traditional church setting. The message is just so good … so true … so right on for every one of us as we journey through this life. Through the many years of ups and downs of this life, I could and can always count on the faithfulness of God to me. Here’s the lyric:

In my loneliness and fear, through every pain every tear
There's a God who's been faithful to me
When my strength was all gone, when my heart had no song
Still my God has been faithful to me

Every word He promised is true
What I thought was impossible
I've seen my God do

He's been faithful, faithful to me
Just looking back His love and mercy I see
When in my heart I have questioned
And failed to believe
He's been faithful, faithful to me

When my heart looked away, the many times I could not pray
Even then He's been faithful to me
The days I've spent so selfishly, reaching out for what pleased me
Still in love He's been faithful to me

And every time I come back to Him
I see Him waiting with His open arms and I know once again

He's been faithful, faithful to me
Just looking back His love and mercy I see
When in my heart I have questioned
And failed to believe
He's been faithful, faithful to me
God is always faithful even when we are not. He preserves us. He watches over us. He loves us. Here’s a portion of a Psalm that talks about God’s faithful and steadfast love for us.

Psalm 25:9-11 (English Standard Version)
9He leads the humble in what is right,
and teaches the humble his way.
10All the paths of the LORD are steadfast love and faithfulness,
for those who keep his covenant and his testimonies.
11For your name’s sake, O LORD,
pardon my guilt, for it is great
.

Psalms like these makes me feel kind of special … you, too.

Agape’
