Love Runs Out (Count: Psalm 136)
Actually, Love doesn't run out.
Human love runs out all the time. When she stops loving you back. When you don't get what you want from him.
When it's no longer convenient, human love often throws in the towel, calls it a day, and hits the road.
But Psalm 136 kind of love? Well, that love endures forever.
The writer walks us through a concise history of creation and Israel - the Old Testament up to this point, really - and recognizes God's love through all of it.
Take a walk through your life, and think about the evidence of God's love for you throughout your life...
Birth - every breath is from Him.
Growth - He sustains, protects, helps, teaches.
Family - Some families are a blessing, and other families make us long for God as a loving Father.
On our staff - just like at The Chapel - we have a staff member share the "Top Ten" things/people/events that God has used to influence and shape who they are today.
What are your top ten?
As I count down the events of my life - God's love endures through all of it.
