Psalm 136:- One thing you will remember from this psalm is the chorus ‘His love endures forever’
This was a psalm sung at Passover. God’s unchanging love that He should love us forever, is a thought to dwell on.
Perhaps a thought that we should put into our lives, how God can love us forever.
Maybe you have had times at work, home, or on the street and something happens that hurts, or annoys, or blocks you and left you with the feeling you want to hit back. But we don’t hit back but we bare the grudge against them forever.
There must be times in our lives, when we do something like taking the wrong path, hurting others, and it has the same effect to God, but His love endures forever. His love is forever looking after us, if we will just allow Him into our lives. Remember to give God our thanks, for His love endures for ever, regardless of all the wrongs we do and make.
