God’s Faithful Love And My Recovery

There’s a song that’s been sung in churches for a few years now called “He Is Faithful.”   The words offer great hope to those of us who are recovering our lives and coming to believe in a power greater than ourselves who can restore us to sanity. 

Some of the lyrics are: “I have heard a sound coming on the winds, changing hearts and minds, healing brokenness.  I feel a generation breaking through despair. I hear a generation full of faith declare, …: He is faithful, He is glorious, He is Jesus, all my hope is in Him.  He is freedom, He is healing right now. He is hope and joy, love and peace and life. … He has paid the highest price. He has proven His great love for us. We will praise Him with our lives and proclaim our love for Him.”

Jesus Christ has proved God’s unfailing love for us by coming to earth in human form and dying on the cross to pay the debt of sin for the whole world.  He overcame death on our behalf and His resurrection life is our solid hope for eternal life.  The Spirit of Jesus living in us is the power by which we overcome any difficulty, past, present, or future.  The life we are recovering in this power-filled relationship with God is made available to us through the finished work of Jesus here on earth.

When we turn our will and our life over to the care of God, He promises to fill us with new life.  God always keeps His promises.

Prayer:  Into my heart, into my heart, come into my heart Lord Jesus.  Come in today.  Come in to stay.  Come into my heart, Lord Jesus.  Amen
