Though the Mountains be shaken and the Hills be removed, Yet MY unfailing Love for you will Not be shaken nor My Covenant of Peace be removed, says the Lord who has compassion on you. Isaiah 54:10
Nothing on earth seems as enduring or immovable as HUGE, MAJESTIC Mountains. When you stand on their heights ~ breathing in the rarified air ~ you can almost smell eternity. Yet, MY Love and Peace are even more enduring that the greatest mountains on Earth!
Think deeply about MY UNFAILING LOVE. One of the meanings of "unfailing" is: inexhaustible. No matter how needy you are or how many times you fail ME, MY supply of Love for you will never run low. Another meaning of "unfailing" is: Constant
I do not love you more on days when you perform well, or do I love you less when you fail miserably. My LOVE is more perisistent, invariable, and steadfast than you can comprehend. Open your heart to receive this amazing gift in FULL MEASURE!
MY COVENANT OF PEACE is a sovereign gift of grace, and it is utterly secure. I can no more withdraw this blessing from you than I can stop being God. Moreover, I MYSELF am your Peace. So the more intimately you know ME, the more you can experience MY unfathomable Peace. Take time, take time to draw near ME; seek Me in the moments of your life. Come freely into MY PRESENCE even when you are feeling bad about yourself. Remember who I AM ~ THE LORD who has compassion on you.

Me and Mine in a Small Town
Mountain scenes have long been a source of great inspiration for me. What an apt parallel to God's love and power.
Have a blast with that prom!

This was great Loren! This was my favorite part, "MY COVENANT OF PEACE is a sovereign gift of grace, and it is utterly secure. I can no more withdraw this blessing from you than I can stop being God." Wow! That is good!!!! :)
I LOVED this...I am going to pick up that book. Praying for all those kids to have the time of their lives tonight and make wonderful memories and do so all safely. HUGS
Loren, thank you so much for this very encouraging post! (as ALWAYS!)
Ours have a similar theme this time!
I hope you have a wonderful weekend!
I love when you share many things/ways to make us see or better understand His love for us more and more. I am so glad that our God does not change and His love is always faithful and eternal. Have a great week sister and may the Lord's blessings pour down on you like a flood! :) Love to you.
Good Saturday evening Loren,
I will certainly be praying for those beautiful young people going to their prom, as well as those precious parents.
What a most inspiring post,this verse speaks so much hope and joy to me. I am so thankful that He loves me when I am good and when I am not so good. And for His peace that surpasses all my understanding. Thank you for sharing.
And as always thank you for stopping by and leaving such encouraging words. You are such a blessings.
I am so happy to be able to visit again.

Hi Loren, Thanks for sharing that excerpt from
Sarah Young's book. It is so inspiring!!!!
Have a blessed Spiritual Sunday. God loves you and so do I.
I live near the mountains and that's where I always hear His whisper in my spirit...that's where I always find strength and courage...thanks for this. Sarah
Wow, Loren, what great words of wisdom. Thank you for sharing them with us.
Blessings,

Praising the Lord with you for His amazing unconditional love. There is no peace like Jesus. Have a great weekend, Loren!
What a wonderful post! Thanks.
This is beautiful. Praying for the kids to have a wonderful, and very safe prom. I love you.
Wow Loren...the line "I do not love you more on days when you perform well, or do I love you less when you fail miserably", hit me hard. So often I think my kids don't feel that way with me by my reaction...even though I always love them. Thank God that He Loves us the same always and disciplines us with Love. Oh to be that good of a parent to my children. I strive...but fail so bad. Thank you Lord for your forgiveness & UNCHANGING Love.
Hugs,
Mimi
What a wonderful and uplifting Bible verse and devotional for today! Thank you so much. :)
Hi Loren,
Thank you for sharing this wonderful devotional today. I'm so glad He loves me on the days I perform well and on those I don't. Have a beautiful week ahead.
Blessings,
Sandi
Wonderful, affirming statement of God's faithfulness to us.

This is such an encouraging post, thank-you. I'm late at reading S.S this week, so I read about your daughters prom as well. Praise the Lord that everyone had a safe night.
God Bless,
