He Is Always The Same

God is the same no matter what the hour. He never changes. He is the same yesterday, today and forever. He is our Rock, our Fortress and our Strength. Though the flower fades His love never fades. It doesn't even grow dim. Our love can go in and out depending on our mood, our feelings. But not Gods. His is the same. It's an everlasting love. YES! He loves us with an everlasting love.

I am up really early again this morning. My main thought is always....Why can't I just sleep? Why doesn't the Lord just do something for me and let me get some much needed good rest and more hours of sleep each night? Well....maybe there is more of a reason than just because my body hurts. Maybe....just maybe....He is wanting to talk with me and I am just having trouble with the listening lately.

Everyday I wake up thinking I need to be different. I need to change the way I'm doing things. I need to get back to reading my Bible everyday like before. I need to talk to God more. I....I....I....I'm thinking that I am the problem! God is a good God and He has everything in control. His control. I just need to rest in that. It can be really hard at times for me to do that....to let go of me. To let God be everything I need. Oh....that can be so hard for me at times! Letting go and just Letting GOD!! That's what I want more than you can even imagine!

Lamentations 3:22-23 tells us this;

Through the Lord's mercies we are not consumed,
Because His compassions fail not.
They are new every morning.
Great is Your faithfulness.

The Hebrew reads instead of we are not consumed; keeps us from destruction.

I absolutely love that verse! Because of HIS mercy, everyday we get to start over!! Because of His mercy. Because of His grace! Every day God is faithful! Every minute of everyday....

GOD . Is . Faithful!!! I am full of fault....I am full of need....I am full of failure....the list just goes on and on. But it doesn't matter to Him. He sees me and He loves me....unconditionally!! He is full of mercy....for me. He is full of compassion....for me. He is full of Love....for me. When it seems that I don't have what it takes to keep going in this life....He is there waiting to give me everything that I need to get up and make it. One . More . Time.


Here is a list of verses to read;
Hebrews 13:8
Psalm chapter 18
Isaiah 40:8
Jeremiah 31:3

I don't know if this is for anyone other that myself this morning and really....it doesn't matter. This is what seems to be on my heart to share today.

Father God I pray today that You keep all of us in Your care. Wrap Your loving arms around us and help us to feel loved. That can be so hard for some of us. Help us to let You be all that we need. Give us peace, strength and courage to keep going no matter what our individual issues are that we face today. Thank You for loving us and saving us. Thank You for being everything we need. Thank You for the joy that I believe You are going to instill in each and everyone of us today! Thank You for sending Jesus to be our Savior. Thank You. Thank You. Thank You. We praise You and thank You for being our Rock and our Fortress in times of our need. Thank You.
In Jesus name...Amen and Amen.

  1. Amen, Chelle.

    I wake up feeling like that sometimes too, that I need to do a complete overhaul on myself...But all I really need to do is to keep my mind stayed on Him, and not look so hard on my own self...I think it is one of the ways the devil uses to slow me down and get my focus off of God.
    I have had seasons where I will say that I am not losing my faith in God (he is always faithful and always worthy)...but I am losing my faith in myself...maybe that is what it means to lose one's life in order to gain your life in Christ?
    We cannot forget the fact that when we are weak, He is strong. When we decrease He increases.
    Thanks for being so honest here on your blog Chelle, it is for God's glory and it will produce fruit for the Kingdom...I sure do get blessed here.
    I'm praying for your pain, and praying for a good night's sleep for you tonight.
    Blessings and love~ Lisa
