Author: Evangelist Crystal Poston

“God’s Love is Everlasting”
 Scripture: Jeremiah 31:2-3

"Thus saith the Lord, The people which were left of the sword found grace in the wilderness; even Israel, when I went to cause him to rest. The Lord hath appeared of old unto me, saying, Yea, I have loved thee with an everlasting love: therefore with lovingkindness have I drawn thee."

Devotion:
I can truly say that I am so grateful for God’s unchanging, eternal love for me. Even in moments of suffering, feeling lonely, or loss, His love comforts me.  We are reminded of how the people of Israel had endured hardship, and God spoke to them in the wilderness which was a place of emptiness and struggle for them. Just as His grace and love never left them, He has promised in His Word to never leave us nor forsake us. (Hebrews 13:5)

Our God’s love is truly everlasting.  We should be thankful that it’s because of His lovingkindness that we are drawn to Him; it does not depend on our performance or circumstances. Because of His love, we can trust Him when we feel distant or overwhelmed, because He is near, calling us back into His arms with mercy and faithfulness.

This Scripture encourages us to trust in His constant love. Yes, life will bring lonely moments, trials, and uncertainty, but God’s love does not waver. He goes before us, surrounds us, and remains faithful, guiding us to rest in Him.  Remember that you are never out of the reach of God’s faithful love!

Prayer:
Thank You for Your everlasting love. Even when I feel lost, weary, or far from You, Your faithfulness is always near. Thank You that Your grace finds me in the wilderness and draws me closer to You. Help me to trust in Your love completely. Give me a heart to reflect Your enduring love to those around me. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
