Rejoice In His Love

     King David was called, “a man after God’s own heart.” But, like us, he messed up time after time. His beautiful songs and emotions fill the pages of the Psalms. We witness his sorrow, his fear, his deep shame and his continued desire to come back to God.

     Even when we mess up, God is there. He loves us always, never less, never more, because of our behavior. His unconditional love is beyond our human understanding. Wherever you are today, rejoice in His love for you.

I will be glad and rejoice in Your unfailing love, for You have seen my troubles, and You care about the anguish of my soul.  Psalm 31:7

Then I will rejoice in the Lord. I will be glad because He rescues me. Psalm 35:9

     Notice in the last verse above, the word “rescues.” It is not past-tense or future-oriented. It is a perpetual rescue, past, present and future. He will rescue us. He has rescued us. He rescues us over and over again.

Lord,

We rejoice in Your ever-present love for us even when we mess up and turn away from You. Thank You for never leaving us alone. All we need to do is turn to You again and again.

In Jesus name,

Amen
