December 2nd

1 I will sing of the steadfast love of the Lord, forever; with my mouth I will make known your faithfulness to all generations. 2 For I said, “Steadfast love will be built up forever; in the heavens you will establish your faithfulness.” 3 You have said, “I have made a covenant with my chosen one; I have sworn to David my servant: 4 ‘I will establish your offspring forever, and build your throne for all generations.’”

Have you ever heard someone comment "well I never hear from them" when talking about a relationship with a friend or family? I have, and I have even thought it myself at times.

Relationships don't normally work well if they are one-sided, even our relationship with God. After reading this scripture passage several times I began to see the instructions to me - sing of God's love, speak of his faithfulness and acknowledge his love is forever.

God, in turn, promises through his covenant that his people are blessed for generations- and that includes me. As we sang recently in service, Great is Thy Faithfulness! Thank you God.
