Read Proverbs 19:22; Psalm 63:2-4; and Psalm 90:14. What do these verses tell you about God’s unfailing love? Have you ever wondered how God’s love could be enough?
Proverbs 19:22 “What a person desires is unfailing love; better to be poor than a liar.”
Psalm 63:2-4 “I have seen you in the sanctuary and beheld your power and your glory. Because your love is better than life, my lips will glorify you. I will praise you as long as I live, and in your name I will lift up my hands.”
Psalm 90:14 “Satisfy us in the morning with your unfailing love, that we may sing for joy and be glad all our days.”
These verses tell us that what we want or desire above all else is unfailing love and that it comes from God. His love is better than life and will satisfy us and make us joyful all the time.
I have many times wondered if God’s love could be enough. Sometimes I so crave someone to sit with and hold my hand or a hug or tight embrace or even more that feeling of being loved, cherished, and passionately wanted by another. I love my children, my family and friends/acquaintances, and my students, but it still so often feels like such a lonely world to me. My life is very full and in my head I know that God is all I need, especially because He’s brought me so far and been so much to me, but every once in a while… I want to believe His love is enough; to feel that it’s enough at all times.
