Day Thirty – January 27, 2020  

Read: Psalm 89:1-4

Psalm 89 talks about God’s steadfast, faithful nature.  Think back over your life, especially over difficult times.  How was God faithful to you during adversity? God being faithful doesn’t mean that everything we want will happen. God’s faithfulness means that we do not face our challenges alone.

 

A spiritual practice that has been very helpful to me, is the practice of memorizing Scripture.  The words get into my heart and my head.  Reciting them, reminding myself of these truths about God, faith and love, bring me courage, strength and peace.  From time to time in this blog, I will suggest some verses that you may want to memorize.

 

These verses from the Hebrew scriptures (Old Testament) book of Lamentations 3:22-23 are good verses to memorize and to have in your heart to pull out in difficult times.

The steadfast love of the Lord never ceases^]
   God’s mercies never come to an end;
they are new every morning;
    great is your faithfulness.
