God’s Constant Love

A few days ago I was looking at a series of photographs of sunrises and sunsets which I had taken in different parts of the world.

I realised afresh that the sun always rises in the morning and sets in the evening. No matter where we are in the world we can rely on those facts about the sun. It may be obscured at times by bad weather conditions, but it is still there. We can depend on it.

I was reminded that God is like that. No matter where we are or what happens to us, he will be there. He never changes. Sometimes we find it difficult to see him, especially when things are going badly, or when we wander away from him, but he is still there. He never deviates from his course or his plan for us. We can trust in that knowledge. We can depend on God and put our trust in his constant care for us. His glory is reflected in the world he created and in the lives of those who know him and serve him.

Prayer: Lord, we give you thanks for your unfailing love and care for us. Help us always to trust you, in whatever circumstances we find ourselves. Amen
