Unwavering Promises

April 7

God’s Word is ‘yea and amen.’ God’s Word is unchanging. God’s Word is foundational to life. God’s Word is eternal. We yearn for something strong upon which to build our future. We work hard and strive diligently to achieve the goals that we believe will give us satisfaction and security.

But we know there are no guarantees in life. We may prepare ourselves thoroughly during our university years, work industriously during our productive decades, yet still fall short of the comfort and ease we hoped to take when the day of old age arrives. No guarantees.

Life’s curve balls come fast. Unless we’re up to the challenge of the game, it is possible to strike out. A reality of life is that there are few grand prize winners in life’s contests. But, though we may find ourselves to be less than we’d hoped in every area of endeavor, there is one in which we are assured total success.

Deuteronomy 29:29 assures, “The revealed things belong to us and to our children forever so we may follow all the words of this law.” The Lord makes great and precious promises to those who choose to follow Him and His promises are unwavering as long as we walk after Jesus in truth.
