Finally we've come to a positive note. God is perfectly faithful (v. 1). The Hebrew word for this phrase "perfect faithfulness" come from the root word that means amen which means "it is so" or "I agree."
God is faithful to judge. God is faithful to save. God is faithful to restore. God does what He says He will do.
I hope that we will be able to say the words of v. 9:
"Surely this is our God;
we trusted in him and he saved us.
This is the LORD, we trusted in him;
let us rejoice and be glad in his salvation."
Trust in the LORD for He is our faithful God.
Finally, all the disaster has ended, and everyone has nothing to do but to start over and focus on God. Does God still do this today, and in our minds, take us through journeys that aren't that fun so that we can just start over with just God? It's sad but cool, really.
ReplyDeleteI agree. I like positive more than negative.
