If we are disloyal, he stays faithful because he can’t be anything else than what he is. ~ 2 Timothy 2:13 (CEB)
Faithful and loyal Father, even when people disrespect you, you continue to stay loyal to them. You keep your word even when others do not keep theirs. That is who you are -- a steady and faithful God whose love and kindness is greater than our understanding. That is a relief and a joy. When I realize what kind of God you are my faith is fed. It's like a good meal that gives me the energy to go out and live for you in the world. I acknowledge that sometimes I fail you. But I know that your forgiveness is real. I want that forgiveness to flavor everything I do today. Amen.
