Evening: Love Reaching to the Heavens


Psalm 36:5

Your love, O LORD, reaches to the heavens,
  your faithfulness to the skies.




Loving and faithful. Aren't those the two most desirable traits that we want in somebody with whom we have a relationship? God is love. God is faithful. As Matthew Henry comments on the Psalm 36...

"Men may shut up their compassion, yet, with God we shall find mercy. This is great comfort to all believers, plainly to be seen, and not to be taken away. God does all wisely and well; but what he does we know not now, it is time enough to know hereafter. "
~Matthew Henry’s Concise Commentary, Christ Notes

Certainly, I don't know now, why Adam and his family is suffering. I do, however, look forward to that time when I do. In the meantime, it is comforting to know that God's love reaches to the heavens, and that His faithfulness reaches to the skies.

A Prayer

Dear God,
Thank you for loving us.
Thank you for Your faithfulness to us,
even when we are not always faithful to you.
Forgive us of our sins.
Make us blameless in Your sight.
As forgiven sinners,
we bow down and worship you, Lord.
We praise your name.
We also ask for your intervention, Lord.
We humbly request that you would heal your servant, Adam.
Lord, rid Adam's body of E. coli.
Father, we ask that you would continue restoring Adam's brain,
And, that you would provide him with a full recovery.
We ask this in Jesus' name.
Amen.
