His Steadfast Love Endures Forever - Psalm 118: 1

Every day is a gift from God
in His providence, He has a plan
for in His love, He seeks us out
making sure we'll not be also-rans

This is God who made all that's made
from before eternity, God has always been
He's set His heart on lost mankind
showing His love on this was very keen

God calls His people to repentance
even willing to help them find this
in His power to turn from their sin
mighty love proves never to miss

Jesus came down with a purpose
showing sacrificial love upon a cross
dying for sinners who He loved
shedding His blood at His cost

God has shown His love so perfect
shown by Jesus love at Calvary
His steadfast love endures forever
this dear divine love will never sever

(Oh give thanks to the Lord, for he is good;
for his steadfast love endures forever!
Psalm 118: 1)

Amen! Reading your poem is a lovely way for me to start my Friday. Thank you for sharing and for your visit to my page. No, I'm not in Scotland, never been. I'm a Florida gal, but my grandmother's family, the McCulloughs, are from Dunfermline. I would love to visit one day. Have a blessed weekend, Gordon...xx Rhonda

Hi Rhonda, so glad I was able to make your day, the McCulloughs is a very popular Scottish name. I hope you make it over the Atlantic pond one day. You wouldn't want to come today, it's pouring down rain heavily. Thanks for your kind words, I hope to look at more of your writing later, have a blessed weekend, Gordon

Such truth in your words Gordon, he died to save us, so tragic that many turn their backs on him, but as the good book says, they have had their reward.. Enjoy your day Tom
