Great is Thy Faithfulness

Great is Thy faithfulness, O God my Father; There is no shadow of turning with Thee; Thou changest not, Thy compassions, they fail not; As Thou hast been, Thou forever will be. Great is Thy faithfulness! Great is Thy faithfulness! Morning by morning new mercies I see. All I have needed Thy hand hath provided; Great is Thy faithfulness, Lord, unto me! No matter what is going on or what things look like, God is still faithful. Actually it is impossible for God to not be faithful. It is his very character. When everything else changes, God is constant. I've been reading these books by Karen Kingsbury. She is Christian fiction author and the series I have been reading is about this family that goes through so many things. Death, Divorce, Murder, Stillborn Babies, Infertility, Terminal Illnesses, Life Changing Accidents, and so much more. But no matter what they are faced with, their theme song continues to be Great is Thy Faithfulness. I want to be the person with that perspective no matter what I face or endure. Sometimes when we pray, God changes our situations, but oftentimes God changes us so that we can go through the circumstances with his strength and a perspective that says no matter what, God is faithful. I choose to focus on the faithfulness of God and not the struggles I find myself in. You know, when you look at your problems, they are all you can see. But if you look at your faithful God, the situations pale in comparison. Because He is always faithful.
