“The grass withers, the flowers fade, but the word of our God remains forever.” Isaiah 40:8 (CSB) |
Excerpt:
Because He’s perfect, we don’t have to be.
Because He’s steadfast, we can stumble and get back up.
Because He’s so many things that we’re not, we can take in His Word and trust Him with the rest.
This doesn’t mean there’s no effort on our part. We should absolutely push to be more like Christ, ever seeking to align our will to His. But there’s peace in knowing that, even when we miss the mark, His Word is never wasted.
There’s no expiration date on the work God is doing in us.
God, thanks for Your unfailing Word. Thanks for being my solid rock when so many other things are finite and unreliable. Help me to grow deeper in Your life-changing Word. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.
