Long ago the Lord said to Israel: “I have loved you, my people, with an everlasting love. With unfailing love I have drawn you to Myself.
- Jeremiah 31:3 (NLT)
I follow a page on social media called “Christ Followers”, one of the admins is gracious enough to allow me to share my “daily bread” posts.
This admin shares daily devotions called “Closer to Him…with Pastor Tim”, I really like the things Pastor Tim has to say.
Last week he used this verse to talk about the love of the Father, and how the very character of God is to make His love real to us, how we are so loved by God and He just wants us to be closer to Him.
Everlasting love, what an incredible concept.
In 2007, Hillsong United released “From the Inside Out”, look at some of the lyrics:
A thousand times I've failed
Still Your mercy remains
And should I stumble again
I'm caught in Your grace
Everlasting
Your light will shine when all else fades
Never ending
Your glory goes beyond all fame
Your will above all else
My purpose remains
The art of losing myself
In bringing You praise
Everlasting
Your light will shine when all else fades
Never ending
Your glory goes beyond all fame
In my heart and my soul
Lord I give You control
Consume me from the inside out
Lord, let justice and praise
Become my embrace
To love you from the inside out
Your will above all else
. . .
Everlasting
Your light will shine when all else fades
Never ending
Your glory goes beyond all fame
And the cry of my heart
Is to bring You praise
From the inside out
Lord my soul cries out
I want that everlasting unfailing love and kindness.
And I can only find it in the Father.
Let me show you the way to Him.
