Feelings
How great is it that our walks with Christ aren’t based on feelings?
Sometimes we feel disconnected. Sometimes we feel abandoned. But that doesn’t mean God isn’t with us.
Sometimes we feel happy and content in the Lord. But happiness is fleeting. True joy in the Lord is everlasting!
One day our lives feel bright and the next day we wake up and our lives feel dark.
We are an emotional people. We are always changing. We are inconsistent.
Our feelings are always dictating our lives.
But my relationship with Christ is not based on a feeling. Although I may feel like my life is rough, and I may feel deserted, and I may feel ruined, Christ still died for me! He still gave up His life so that I may live! My life is blessed, surrounded by God’s love and grace, and I have been made clean by the blood shed for me!
We are inconsistent.
The Lord never changes. He never falters. He stays the same through the ages. He is the ONE thing that will always remain.
Thank You, Lord, for Your consistency.
