There are three main verses which I treasure, for their confirmation of His faithfulness. Coz there are days when I get hurt because some one isn’t being faithful to the word they have promised, the job I was offered, an agreement was broken…
And I rest my hurting heart once again upon His shoulder, and allow the faithful One to show me:
- His Word never fails!
- His adopting me will last forever!
- His Promises always come to pass!
If you too have days where you need a reminder of His faithfulness, print out these verses and see Him anew.
