Great is Thy Faithfulness

We take God’s faithfulness for granted. He loves us. He’s always there for us. He’s always working for us. Just like a good Father should do, right? But unless we purpose to set our minds on Him, we hardly give that faithfulness a second thought.

I simply want to encourage you today. Do a little tune-up on your God-consciousness. Think about Him. Remind yourself of all He’s done for you. Give Him your worries. And thank Him for being the best Dad.

I love the words in this old hymn:

Great is Thy faithfulness, O God my Father;
There is no shadow of turning with Thee,
Thou changest not, Thy compassions they fail not,
As Thou hast been,Thou forever wilt be.

Great is Thy faithfulness!
Great is Thy faithfulness!
Morning by morning new mercies I see
All I have needed Thy hand hath provided
Great is Thy faithfulness, Lord unto me!

Summer and winter and springtime and harvest,
Sun, moon, and stars in their courses above;
Join with all nature in manifold witness,
To Thy great faithfulness, mercy, and love.

Pardon for sin and a peace that endureth,
Thine own great presence to cheer and to guide;
Strength for today, and bright hope for tomorrow
Blessings all mine, with ten thousand beside.
