We actually had frost on the rooftops this morning! A real dip in temperature. It was in the 30’s.

The seasons come and go according to God’s faithfulness but it’s His steadfast love that allows me to give glory today.

Consider this passage from Romans:

Romans 6:9-11 (ESV)

[9] We know that Christ, being raised from the dead, will never die again; death no longer has dominion over him. [10] For the death he died he died to sin, once for all, but the life he lives he lives to God. [11] So you also must consider yourselves dead to sin and alive to God in Christ Jesus.

When I choose this way of living, I am aware of God’s steadfast love for me and constrained to give glory to God.

Instead of allowing the “rain and clouds” of our world to get me down, I can look heavenwards at the promise, aka “rainbow”.

God promised to be our help and shield when we fear Him and trust Him.

He gave us His Son to be our Savior. He made a way for us to experience God’s steadfast love at every moment of every day. Why do we try to find it in our own way?

Do you know this as true? You are the object of His great love!! -Teresa ❤️#help #shield #inChristJesus #forGod’s glory

Psalm 115:1-11 (ESV)

To Your Name Give Glory

115 Not to us, O Lord, not to us, but to your name give glory,
    for the sake of your steadfast love and your faithfulness!

² Why should the nations say,
    “Where is their God?”
³ Our God is in the heavens;
    he does all that he pleases.

⁴ Their idols are silver and gold,
    the work of human hands.
⁵ They have mouths, but do not speak;
    eyes, but do not see.
⁶ They have ears, but do not hear;
    noses, but do not smell.
⁷ They have hands, but do not feel;
    feet, but do not walk;
    and they do not make a sound in their throat.
⁸ Those who make them become like them;
    so do all who trust in them.

⁹ O Israel,^[a] trust in the Lord!
    He is their help and their shield.
¹⁰ O house of Aaron, trust in the Lord!
    He is their help and their shield.
¹¹ You who fear the Lord, trust in the Lord!
    He is their help and their shield.
