How faithful you have been, Lord,
in each of my seasons.
You set your word in my heart
and held my hand
when I was learning to walk.
You held me close
when my little girl heart was broken.
You rose with me
on those dark mornings
when I had to grow up too fast
and planted the beautiful dream of family
in my heart.
You walked beside me
in the lonely seasons
the mocked seasons
the sorrowful seasons.
Faithfully you watched over me.
Faithfully you kept me from harm
and from harming myself.
Faithfully you whispered your word
into my ears, reminding me
of your everlasting love.
When I rebelled
you did not reject me.
When I came crawling back
you accepted me.
When I sought healing
you never shamed me
but sutured my wounds
and smoothed on your salve.
In the valleys
you carried me.
On the mountaintops
you rejoiced with me.
In each season you stretched me
strengthened me
and shaped me
to be more like you.
Because you have been faithful to me
I want to be faithful to you.
I seek the regular rhythms
of worship, confession, repentance, praise.
I seek your presence in the morning
in the afternoon
in the evening.
In these faithful rhythms
I find your love
your joy
and your peace.
Questions for reflection:
How has God faithfully walked with you through your seasons?
How can you praise him today for his faithfulness to you?
