Because of the LORD’S great love we are not consumed, for His compassions never fail.  Lamentations 3:22 NIV

Here is a verse packed with powerful words:

Not, meaning prohibition

Consumed, to destroy or expend by use; completely use up.

Compassions, a feeling of deep sympathy and sorrow for another, a strong desire to alleviate the suffering.

Never, at no time.

Fail, fall short of success.

I’ve restated Lamentations 3:22 with the help of dictionary.com to illustrate how much love and assurance God gives to those who put their trust in Him.

Because of the LORD’s great love, He will prohibit us from being destroyed or completely used up, for He has a strong desire to alleviate our suffering, He sympathizes with our sorrows and at no time will He fall short of success in this endeavor!

I don’t need to commentate on these impactful words, but I encourage you put these absolutes into your heart and live them as the reality they are.

Have a wonderful mid-week,

Gretchen
