Great is His faithfulness

Lamentations 3:23
God is not like man. He is the epitome of consistency. God is consistently God, and consistently good.
His Word is perfect, complete, without lack. It will never pass away.
Knowing the God that we serve and knowing the Word he has spoken, gives us hope; even in the midst of chaos, God's will is unfolding, and the end result will be better than we could have orchestrated or imagined.
God the creator, the most powerful force in existence, the all-knowing, ever-present master of all, is not taken by surprise by the circumstances we face in life. With one word, he can uproot a mountain from the bottom of the sea. With one thought he can change the color of the sun. The possibilities are endless. Nothing is impossible with God. What you, as a child of God, may be experiencing is perfectly ordered by a perfect God.
While there is a grand list of people and things that may fail us,  Jesus never fails. It's because of his mercies that we are not consumed. You are in the hands of a loving God, whose compassions never fail. You can without a doubt, trust Him.
Great is His faithfulness.
"Tis so sweet to trust in Jesus
Just to take Him at His Word
Just to rest upon His promise
Just to know, thus sayeth the Lord"
-Louisa M.R. Stead

Mission: Christmas Blessing

Peace & love everybody! I've been so excited it's been hard to contain myself regarding today's mission! I hope that after reading this post, you'll be as encouraged as I am now! Known by most today as "the last Stalinist country" and according to VOM, "one of the most repressive and isolated regimes in the world", North Korea needs our prayers, monetary support, and volunteers. It's even being reported that a holocaust is occurring there as I'm writing this! Christians are being tortured, killed, and having "experiments" run on them all because they testify that Jesus is their Lord. Read a short synopsis of what Persecution.com has to say about North Korea and check out their related links. Thanks to our family over at The Voice of the Martyrs, we will be able to encourage and support our North Korean brothers and sisters! With our donations of $50 we will be able to sponsor a package that will have hard-to-get essentials,

Earnestly contend for the Faith: Jude

Today's passage is Revelation 18-22, but here I am one book behind in Jude. I just wanted to spend some time in this one chaptered book. I love that the Word of God is LIVELY and ACTIVE, and, though never changing, it is always revealing. I got stuck on Jude verse 3. The words EARNESTLY and CONTEND, made me think, wow, we have to put up a fight for this thing. I read, and scribbled in my notebook as I went through. Here is what I wrote:

child logic: waitress vs. God

That sounds like something my 6 year old would say! Malachi 3:10-12 (King James Version) 10Bring ye all the tithes into the storehouse, that there may be meat in mine house, and prove me now herewith, saith the LORD of hosts, if I will not open you the windows of heaven, and pour you out a blessing, that there shall not be room enough to receive it. 11And I will rebuke the devourer for your sakes, and he shall not destroy the fruits of your ground; neither shall your vine cast her fruit before the time in the field, saith the LORD of hosts. 12And all nations shall call you blessed: for ye shall be a delightsome land, saith the LORD of hosts.
