MEDITATION

Yesterday, my wife and I attended a family gathering where many generations were present. As I looked about the group throughout the day, I thought on how God’s plans and covenants are exactly the same for each one of them – no matter their age or experiences. He extended His mercy and love to all generations. He is not One that is able to go back on His word or be unfaithful to it. Today, realize the depth and truth that is God.
