Never Swallowed Up. 8/15/2021

 Good Morning,

I hit the ground running this morning. Our two dogs wanted to take advantage of a cool morning by playing around in our yard. I have been watching them, while drinking a hot cup of Door County Breakfast Blend Coffee. Now it is time to write.

Because of the Lord's great love we are not consumed, for His compassions never fail. They are new every morning, great is your faithfulness.

This verse promises that we will not be consumed by the pressures and constant challenges that life presents to us. How can that not happen to us? The answer is because of God's great love for us. How comforting is it to know that each morning there is another vast amount of God's compassions in a basket with my name on it. Your name is on your own basket of compassion. No one can measure the love God has for us. God is too vast to measure and can't be held to any limits that our minds can imagine. Life cannot swallow us up. 

This verse also points out God's great power. It never runs dry or diminishes with age. It's ability to cleanse, renew, heal, forgive, and guide, is always there for us. 

So today, as you count your blessings, count the unfailing love, and compassion that is new for us every morning. I never get tired of reading this verse. Thank you Lord.

Have a great day.

Marty
