God's unfailing love

I read Psalm 33 this morning which contained the following verses:

"But the eyes of the LORD are on those who fear him,on those whose hope is in his unfailing love,to deliver them from death and keep them alive in famine. We wait in hope for the LORD;he is our help and our shield. In him our hearts rejoice,for we trust in his holy name. May your unfailing love rest upon us,O LORD,even as we put our hope in you."

It's good to know that despite the surprises and uncertainties that life throws at us we can place our hope in God's unfailing love. That is one thing that is constant and trustworthy. God's love is always there as Paul said to the church in Roman "Nothing can separate us from the love of God." That does not mean that everything will go our way or that we will not be confused at times and wonder why God has allowed things to happen. However, it does mean we can put our faith in his eternal love.

Lamentations 3 says:

"Because of the LORD's great love we are not consumed, for his compassions never fail. They are new every morning;great is your faithfulness."

The challenge for us all is to continue to put our trust in his love even through difficult and challenging times.
