Turn, O Lord, and deliver me; save me because of your unfailing love. Psalm 6:4
What would happen if God's love were to ever fail?
I believe there would be absolutely no hope for any of us. Nothing I do or don't do will ever make me worthy enough, for my actions do not always reflect the man God has called me to be. Only perfection would make me worthy. It is only by His action - by His grace - by His perfection - that I am made worthy.
Thankfully, His love is unfailing. Every time I look in the mirror, what I see is less than perfect. The truest reflection of His love that I will ever see is the gift of salvation - the gift of His Son.
Lord, help me to always remember that my worthiness is not contingent on my action. My happiness... yes. My worthiness... no. Doing the right things sure makes life a lot easier, but doing them does not determine Your love and forgiveness. You will always love. You will always forgive. Even Your wrath is based in love. Without it, we would destroy ourselves.
Rescue me, Lord. Not because I'm such a great person, but because You are such a great God. May You be glorified today.
