majestic, and full of splendor: breathtaking! Here is what I saw of
him in Psalm 94:18-19,
"When I said, 'My foot is slipping,' your love, O Lord, supported me.
When anxiety was great within me, your consolation brought joy to my
soul."
This psalmist found the Lord to be his fortress, a rock in whom he
could take refuge, verse 22. He knew his Lord and had a history with
him. The Lord brought him joy. In his experiences with the Lord he
found the Lord supported him, consoled him. How many times? Of all the
times the psalmist looked for support and consolation from the Lord,
how many times did he receive it? Once? Twice? Some of the time? Most
of the time?
Proverbs 20:6 asks an insightful question, "Many a man claims to have
unfailing love, but a faithful man who can find?" The answer to this
is one. Just one. There is one and only one who has unfailing love and
will be there reliably and faithfully each and every time he is
sought! Jesus Christ is faithful to all his promises, every time!
Some folks may not feel a need. Not me! I need someone I can turn to,
someone who is faithful and reliable, one that will be a fortress and
rock, one who will support and console me when I need it. One who
brings me joy. Not once or twice, not some of the time or even most of
the time - each and every time! And that is his commitment to me! What
a love our Savior has for us!
