From the Old Testament to the New, the eternality of God's Word is clearly proclaimed: 

Job tells us, “I have treasured the Words of His mouth more than my portion of food” (Job 23:12). 

Isaiah reminds us that, “The grass withers and the flowers fall, but the Word of our God endures forever” (Isaiah 40:8). 

And Matthew records Jesus saying, “Heaven and earth will pass away, but My Words will never pass away” (Matthew 24:35).

God's Word is like an eternal Love Letter to us!

​Have you ever received a love letter, friend? Did you read it? Did you read it just once, or did you read it over and over again? A Love Letter is a treasure when you love the One who sent it!

My daughter Emersyn is currently finishing up her swimming lessons for the summer. It’s been very rewarding to see her progress as both her skill and confidence have grown. As I’ve had a front-row seat to her frustrations and successes throughout this process, it’s reinforced to me a part of her personality that I can relate to.

In one of her early lessons, her teacher remarked to me that our greatest hurdle in helping Emersyn become a better swimmer would be encouraging her to give up the illusion of control.

​As her mom, I’ve seen this struggle manifest itself in many ways — her reluctance to go down the slide at the playground, hesitation in her interactions with our new puppy, unwillingness to jump from a higher step or platform unless I am holding her hand. ​

Do you ever feel abandoned by God? Does He ever feel far away from you? Do you ever struggle to see Him working in your life?

Did you know that God will never abandon His beloved? He promises that in His Word. He says, "I will NEVER leave you nor forsake you," and He doesn't just say that once. He repeats that promise over and over again several times throughout His Love Letter to us.

Friend, are you able to honestly say today, "If God is all I have, God is enough?"

We are all going to have "Jordans" to go over in our lives at one time or another. These are the seemingly impossible challenges and the no-way-out situations we find ourselves in.

You may see a Jordan in your near future. Maybe it's the daunting task of being a caregiver to a terminally ill spouse or elderly parents. Or, you're asking yourself how you will pay college tuition for your soon-to-be high school senior.

You may be crossing a Jordan right now. Maybe you are trying to pay off college debt or balance an out-of-control budget due to rising inflation. Or, that dream job you've waited for all your life turns out not to be the dream job after all.

Or, possibly you just finished crossing a Jordan. Maybe you finally heard the end-of-chemo bell ring. Or, you've been able to purchase your forever home after months of searching.
