VERSE:

VERSE: For the LORD is good; his mercy is everlasting; and his truthendureth to all generations. -- Psalm 100:5 http://www.SearchGodsWord.org/desk/?query=Psalm+100:5&translation=kjvTHOUGHT: I usually "speed read" through the "begats" (you know, throughthe genealogies in the Bible). But, let's take time today to goback and read Matthew 1:1-17 and be reminded that God's love,mercy, and faithfulness not only continued through all of thosegenerations, but also blessed and nurtured each of thosegenerations. As he has done in the past, God will do so even morein the days ahead as we await the glorious return of his Son andour Savior, the Lord Jesus Christ.PRAYER: In a world of change and undependability, thank you, dearFather, for being sure, steadfast, and faithful. In a time wheneveryone seems to want something from me or out of me, thank you,dear Father, for repeatedly and consistently blessing me. Thank youfor being more enduring than the mountains and more glorious thanthe most beautiful sunrise. In the name of Jesus, your Son and myglory. Amen.
