Faith Hitting Pavement: Unfailing God

I laced up shoes, with the question of why God? My husband got home for Shepard school last night with some news that just broke my heart.

Another person. Another illness. Another family. Why?

As I set out to run and my feet hit the pavement, I started to pray. As the cool gentle breeze hit my face and I allowed my thought to run faster than my legs, I started to go there. Where are you Lord?

And in that moment my ears were flooded and overwhelmed with the chorus of this song...

" I trust you, I trust you, you don't walk away. You are unfailing God, your loves unending, your word is eternal firm in the heavens it stands."

Then I was reminded of our Yahweh.. The great I AM. His love IS unfailing and although I will never understand His ways, I'm reminded that He is eternal. Destination heaven is home! Trying to understand a place that is not "home" will only leave us hopeless and discouraged.

His word is firm, His love is unending and He is unfailing. I trust you God!
