As Thou Hast Been, Thou Forever And Ever Will Be

But this I call to mind, and therefore I have hope: The steadfast love of the Lord never ceases; his mercies never come to an end; they are new every morning; great is your faithfulness. (Lamentations 3:21-23, ESV)

Great is Thy faithfulness
O God, my Father and King
There is no shadowy presence
to Your promise I cling

Thy changest not
Thy compassions
As Thou hast been
Thou forever and ever will be

It's been a while since that Father's day post that I actually went in here and legitimately posted something. A lot of ups and downs in this journey we call life has happened. Some of which I really praise God for and some of which I find my heart sinking just at the thought of it. But if there's anything that I've been reflecting on of late, that song (despite the screams) and that passage pretty much sums it up.

To be honest, there are days in which I just suddenly feel at my lowest. There are days I let my insecurities get the most of me. Last week, even, there was a day in which I did not feel like waking up at all. Yet again, the mere thought of God's faithfulness to us keeps me going. To know that we love, live for, and serve an almighty God who's ever so faithful and ever so constant just blows my mind up, honestly.

I mean, just wow. To know that we have a God who's on our side even when we feel like He's not there... don't you find that more than encouraging? Now, I don't know where exactly each and everyone who would read this is current at in their journey, but what I just want to get to is simple: we have a God who is faithful. And to me, when there are days in which I look back and question why some things have occurred the way they are, I find it encouraging to know that God has indeed a faithful plan for everything.

He is indeed faithful to us. He is faithful then. He is faithful now. And He will be faithful in the future.
