Psalm 136:1-3
1 Give thanks to the Lord, for he is good,
for his steadfast love endures forever.
2 Give thanks to the God of gods,
for his steadfast love endures forever.
3 Give thanks to the Lord of lords,
for his steadfast love endures forever;
Do yourself a favor today and read all of Psalm 136. If you do, you’ll notice a little repetition. The writer was impressed by God’s unfailing, never-ending, never-moving love. So much so that he just keeps saying it over and over. The repetition itself acts as a constant reminder of the constant love of God.
God gives us love in our relationships to mirror His love for us. You may be in love with someone new or no one at all. You may be daily seeing an all too familiar face that fills you with excitement and desire. If so, you know how frail and delicate a thing you must protect as you enjoy. Above and behind and through all that wonderful or not so wonderful human love, look further to the ever-increasing, cross-proven, death-defying love of God.
