Picture: Bride (His vows)
Scripture: Hosea 2:19; Isaiah 54:4,10; Isaiah 62:5; 1 Corinthians 13:4-13
Write any phrases from the selected Bible verses that speak to you:
Think of a wedding ceremony. See the groom making promises to his bride as he puts a ring on her finger to pledge a lifelong commitment. Much like this, but even better because of perfection, God vows His faithful love to His people. He loves His church! His promises to us are almost to good to be true, and yet they are ALL true and they will last forever. His Spirit now lives in us…His love lives IN US! He is 100% faithful and committed to this relationship. He promises to never leave or forsake us (Hebrews 13:5b).
Which promise in the above verses speaks to you the most right now? Why?
Aside from today’s verses, are there any other promises in the Bible that you cling to concerning God’s great love for you? Write them here.
Write a prayer using the above verses as a reference.
And which of you by being anxious can add a single hour to his span of life? If then you are not able to do a small thing as that, why are you anxious about the rest?
Luke 12: 25-26
Dear Lord,
You implore us to have a childlike faith. Cause us to hold your hand in complete trust, believing that you have the best in mind for us. With you by our side, please allow us to breathe deeper and walk more joyfully on the path you have set out for us each day. Amen.
