Faithful Always Faithful | AS BOLD AS LIONS DEVOTIONAL | March 10, 2023

For the word of the Lord is upright, and all His work is done in faithfulness. Psalm 33:4

The other day I was going through an old filing cabinet with various documents and tax forms we’ve saved over the years. I’ve been setting up an office so I was hoping to clean out things as much as possible. As I was digging through some folders, I was reminded of God’s faithfulness. Seeing old paystubs from when I was a poor college student with barely two pennies to rub together. Seeing documents from the first home purchase my wife and I made, knowing in the years that followed we’d move several more times. And even finding an old W-2 from when I drove a delivery route for a local pharmacy in my hometown as a teen. Lots of memories.

As I reflected back on some of the seasons connected to these documents, I realized how faithful the Lord is. When we’re in a difficult stage of life, it can be easy to doubt whether or not God will come through. It’s tempting to abandon Him even as life takes turns we weren’t expecting. Whether the bank account is full or running on empty, His faithfulness to us does not change. Often the seasons are meant to teach us something so that we can draw closer to Him. As I’ve looked back over my life I realize He’s always been there. To look back from time to time is good and it keeps us moving forward as well.

Question for today: What are the landmarks in my life that I can look back to that show God’s faithfulness to me?

Pray: I praise You Lord for being faithful in every aspect of my life. I can look and back and see Your hand. It keeps me going, knowing You will never leave me nor abandon me.
