Day 183: Psalms 98:7 - 103:22

If there's one common subject we can get from these verses, it's that we serve a faithful God. Many of us have wonderful relationships with spouses or friends or family and most would probably consider those people to be faithful friends, but I'm telling you right now that we could never find a friend as faithful as our Lord. He's faithful no matter what could possibly be going on in our lives. We see that He is faithful when everything is going good and moving smoothly. We see that He is faithful when it seems like everyone around us is living in sin. And He even remains faithful when it feels like our entire world is caving in around us. Just like I've talked about before, assuming that God isn't faithful simply because things are difficult is just ridiculous. Our situations may not always be faithful, our friends may not always be faithful, and we may not even always be faithful to ourselves, but God will never leave us nor forsake us. And in my opinion, that's about as faithful as it gets.

- Father, thank You for Your faithfulness. It can sometimes be difficult to quantize Your faithfulness because all we have is humans to compare it to, but thank You nonetheless for being who You are. And thank You that no matter what happens, You will never leave me nor forsake me! -
