He is Faithful

How faithful you have been, Lord,

in each of my seasons.

You set your word in my heart

and held my hand

when I was learning to walk.

You held me close

when my little girl heart was broken.

You rose with me

on those dark mornings

when I had to grow up too fast

and planted the beautiful dream of family

in my heart.

You walked beside me

in the lonely seasons

the mocked seasons

the sorrowful seasons.

Faithfully you watched over me.

Faithfully you kept me from harm

and from harming myself.

Faithfully you whispered your word

into my ears, reminding me

of your everlasting love.

When I rebelled

you did not reject me.

When I came crawling back

you accepted me.

When I sought healing

you never shamed me

but sutured my wounds

and smoothed on your salve.

In the valleys

you carried me.

On the mountaintops

you rejoiced with me.

In each season you stretched me

strengthened me

and shaped me

to be more like you.

Because you have been faithful to me

I want to be faithful to you.

I seek the regular rhythms

of worship, confession, repentance, praise.

I seek your presence in the morning

in the afternoon

in the evening.

In these faithful rhythms

I find your love

your joy

and your peace.

Questions for reflection:

How has God faithfully walked with you through your seasons?

How can you praise him today for his faithfulness to you?
