Never Fail

[The angel concluded,]"For the word of God will never fail." [Later, Mary exclaimed,] "For he made this promise to our ancestors, to Abraham and his children forever." (Luke 1:37, 55 NLT)

Today's meditation:

• We can depend on God's promises, but we cannot advance his timeline nor can we make them conform to our sense of propriety, as Mary discovered, because in the end they are his promises after all. He keeps them; we delight in them!

Pray today:

• For faith to grow in us no matter how unusual the events or how unexpectedly he answers, for a sense of wonder to permeate our thoughts and emotions.
• For the current supporters and caretakers of Emmanuel College to remember all those who came before us to whom God was faithful, for their testimony to encourage us that God is faithful still.
• For weak hearts to be strengthened, for heavy hearts to be lifted because his promise to be with us has not diminished nor has it faded. He is Emmanuel. 

Pray First! Pray Through!
