Faithfulness Is Love’s Abundance
If we are faithless, He remains faithful; He cannot deny Himself.
– 2 Timothy 2:13
There are times we actually think we are the ones hanging onto God. The truth is that God is the One hanging onto us! He is the faithful One.
That’s why we sing: “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!”
It is of the LORD’s mercies that we are not consumed; His compassions do not fail. They are new every morning; great is Your faithfulness (Lamentations 3:22-23).
You can trust God, for He is faithful. If we allow His Spirit to cultivate the fruit of love in our lives, He actually increases our ability to trust and have faith in Him. As the Holy Spirit reminds us of the promises God has already fulfilled in our lives, we have faith to trust Him even more.
Faithfulness to God is the fruit of love’s abundance, and it increases as we draw closer to Him.
Lord, thank You for your faithfulness that saturates me in Your abundant, overwhelming love.
