June 29, 2021 A Love That Stays Gwen Smith Today's Truth I will maintain my love to him forever, and my covenant with him will never fail (Psalm 89:28, NIV). Friend to Friend I took a few pictures with what I call my "big girl camera." You know, the old-school kind with a lens that adjusts to things near and far, making objects change from blurry to clear with a simple twist. It's amazing to look through a viewfinder and watch what is hazy become crisp and clear.  I often feel like I need this feature for my soul.  Have you ever felt that way? My week has been a bit of a blur and this distracted heart needs a good refocusing. So, I turn to the Word of God and the adjustment begins. Psalm 89 was penned by a man named Ethan. He wrote the psalm to celebrate the throne of king David and the prophetic promises God made regarding the eternal nature of Christ's future reign. It's a moving read; full of promise, praise, and wonder. A declaration of God's holiness and steadfast love that seals the destiny of all who place their faith in Jesus.  I read it and am refocused on the hope of God's power, righteousness, justice, faithfulness, and strength. I'm reminded that the indescribable and unsearchable Creator of the universe invites you and me, His small, but cherished creation, to walk in the light of His presence. (v 15) I'm reminded that God is not distant, but near. That He offers to sustain and strengthen all who are His. That He works through my weakness with a power that is perfect and that He hears the cries that rise from haughty human lungs as they breathe His holy name: Father, God, Rock, and Savior. "I will maintain my love to him forever, and my covenant with him will never fail. I will establish his line forever, his throne as long as the heavens endure. "If his sons forsake my law and do not follow my statutes, if they violate my decrees and fail to keep my commands, I will punish their sin with the rod, their iniquity with flogging; but I will not take my love from him, nor will I ever betray my faithfulness. I will not violate my covenant or alter what my lips have uttered. Once for all, I have sworn by my holiness" (Psalm 89:28-35).   CONTINUE READING →
