Great Is Thy Faithfulness.


Lam 3:22  It is of the LORD'S mercies that we are not consumed, because his compassions fail not.
Lam 3:23  They are new every morning: great is thy faithfulness.
Lam 3:24  The LORD is my portion, saith my soul; therefore will I hope in him.
Lam 3:25  The LORD is good unto them that wait for him, to the soul that seeketh him.
Lam 3:26  It is good that a man should both hope and quietly wait for the salvation of the LORD.

Each morning when we awaken, the LORD is there having kept us in the night. We face a new day in God's love and compassion. Great is his faithfulness. Any day that we have in our LORD is a good day.  Each day has it's problems and if we keep our quiet confidence in the LORD, we have peace.  I remember my folks who retired to a country farm. They were enjoying all the working making a garden and raising a small herd of cattle. In the evening they would relax i n the comfort of their home. They would enjoy coffee together.  In time they were no longer here in the new mornings, but their souls are eternally with God because Jesus made the way for them to abide in His presence. In Christ Jesus we can quietly wait for our salvation, for our home is with him forever. It has been said that this is not our home, we are just passing through this place unto our eternal home.  Great is his faithfulness to us. Our faith rests in him.
