In the waiting
In the watching
When I find myself searching
For the reasons why
You are there
You are everywhere
In the stillness
In the quiet
In the moments of everyday
In the small details and in the big
You are there
You are always there
In the darkest days of life
When I cannot see the way ahead
When I feel hopeless and useless
And my heart is overwhelmed
You are there
You are always there
Your presence invades
Your presence sustains
Your presence surrounds
Every fabric of my being
From the depths of the ocean
To the seashore
From the highest of mountains
To the deepest of valleys
Your love is like a beacon
It soothes my soul
You are there
You are here
You are near
You are everywhere
In the spoken
In the unseen
In the beauty of the whole of creation
You have made me
To be like you
To be an image bearer
To the world around me
To reflect your glory
To share the story
Of the one who died on a cross for me
You are here
You are there
Always the same
Yesterday, today and forever
For all of eternity
You are near
You are here
You are always there
You are everywhere

This is a beautiful thing
“The Lord is good and His steadfast love endures forever”
No matter what you’re facing in your life today – these words are true. I love the fact that each and every day I am loved and cherished as a daughter of the King. My life is hidden in Christ. Whether I am in the midst of a storm, facing a trial or viewing life from the joy of the mountain top – His steadfast love endures forever.
This is a beautiful thing.
Created in His image to reflect His glory and even when I have days were I feel like I am wearing shabby rags in a broken world He is doing a beautiful thing – changing me – to become more like Him. Teaching me more about living in the abundance of His grace under the shadow of His wings. For His steadfast love endures forever.
This is a beautiful thing.
Our Heavenly Father is such a good God. He is so good. He delights in us. He is for us and interested in every detail of our lives. His love is steadfast and it endures forever. It will never diminish or fade away.
His love for us is patient and kind.
His love for us is unshakable and unbreakable.
His love for us is an everlasting love.
It will never run dry.
In a world where we experience hurt and pain with rejection our Heavenly Father never rejects us. He accepts us as sons and daughters. He never pushes us away. His arms are always open to embrace us. Even the prodigals are welcome to come back home.
His love never fails
His love never gives up.
His love never makes mistakes.
His love is a completely perfect love lavished upon an imperfect people.
His love casts out all fear.
His love doesn’t envy, it doesn’t boast, it isn’t proud.
His love keeps no record of wrong.
His love completes us in every way.
It satisfies the soul.
His steadfast love endures forever.
This is a beautiful thing.
