Have you ever sat and thought about the Faithfulness of our God. His faithfulness is only disclosed to those who know Him. What a privilege it is to know that our sins have been completely forgiven and forgotten. His faithfulness is proven over and over again with each trial and tribulation we face. It seems like our Lord designs our lives to understand our unfaithfulness and His faithfulness so that we might worship Him fully. The best thing in the world is to be satisfied in Christ and not in myself. Worship is inevitable. To God be all the glory.

His love endures forever
1 Corinthians 13:13
And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love.
Paul wrote that love endures forever. Corinth being morally currupt and the real meaning love had became a mixed up term. Today people are still very confused about love. Love is the greatest of all human qualities and a attribute of God himself (1 john 4:8). Love involves unsefish service to other. Faith is the foundation, confidence and content of God's message; hope is the attitude of optimism and focus; love is the action. When your faith and your hope is in line you become free to love completely because you understand how God loves.
Q: Does your faith fully express itself in loving other?
Q: Do you think this kind of love for others is obtainable?

Grace
It has been said there are only two religions in the world: those that require you to earn God's grace and the one that invites you to enjoy God's grace.
The idea of earning our way to heaven appeals to the human mind. We're taught to work for what we want, and after all, nothing in life comes free! The problem, however, is this: how hard do we need to work? How do we know when we've done enough? Life itself becomes a constant source of doubt, fear, and anxiety. That's why God simply says, "Forget trying to earn my love, because you can't. I'm giving it to you, free and clear!"
God's unlimited and unconditional love-His grace-comes to you through your faith in Jesus Christ and His work. Jesus' ministry on earth shows you God's care and compassion for you as you struggle with the everyday realities of life. His death on the cross shows you God's judgment on sin, and His resurrection from the grave shows you God's acceptance of Jesus' life for yours. No, this doesn't make any sense to the human mind, because it doesn't come from the human mind-it comes from God's, a God of unfathomable, undeserved grace.
God invites you to enjoy-yes, to delight in-living in His grace, because you have it. Salvation is yours, heaven is yours, eternal life is yours-yours free and clear.
