I can’t seem to make up my mind.
This weekend, King, his daughter, and I traveled to Mary Esther, Florida, to visit some of his friends. We have been on the road since 3:30 pm Friday, and we aren’t due to arrive home until possibly 9pm-ish tonight. As such, last night, I recorded a brief video to share with you all today, in lieu of a written piece. Yet here I am, in the car, writing something to you all.
In the video, I talk about God and His faithfulness. In this piece, I want to talk about reality. You see, it’s so easy to talk about how good and faithful God is when everything is going right in our lives… yet we often go radio silent when turbulence arises and life gets shaky. Accepting God’s faithfulness seems so grand and realistic when we are sitting atop life’s mountains, but in the valleys, circumstances can make us feel so alone.
As I write this (from my phone, in a moving vehicle), I’m experiencing in real time just how faithful God truly is. Because His love for me is unconditional, never-ending, and unmatched, He is able to love me even in the moments where I feel unlovable or as though I don’t deserve love. In those moments, God is able to step in and remind me that even when life doesn’t seem perfect, He still is. Even when life doesn’t work out the way that I want it to, He is still in control. Even when the world has forsaken me, He still loves me and He cares.
God is FAITHFUL. Period. Full stop.
Today and every day, rest in that truth, Beloved.
Be blessed.
