For the Lord will not forsake his people, for his great name’s sake, because it has pleased the Lord to make you a people for himself. (1 Samuel 12:22, ESV)
How is it, Father, that though I am so unfaithful at times and can fail you so greatly, you still don’t forsake me?
How is it that it still pleases you to make me yours.
That’s amazing to me: it pleases you to make me your child?
So Father, let me always fear you and serve you faithfully with all my heart. Help me to always consider what great things you have done for me. Especially the cross. Help me to never take that for granted.
Thank you for your incredible goodness toward me.
