As JESUS entered Jerusalem, the people laid palm branched for Him and they shouted Hosanna, "Blessed is He who comes in the name of the LORD." They proclaimed to love Him and proceeded to honor Him. Yet, just five days later, they crucified Him. Now, it was GOD'S plan to buy us back, but, isn't it amazing how quickly folks can turn on us? It shouldn't surprise us, though; they turned on GOD, Himself.
Today's word is a reminder that while we may have betrayed GOD at one time or another, He never leaves us. Psalm 27:10, NLT, reads, "Even if my father and mother abandon me, the LORD will hold me close."
We will experience betrayal in our lives from time to time. We will have those that claim to be friends that will prove otherwise. We will have those that will betray our trust and do something that violates what relationships are built upon. We will have those that will betray our confidence and tell something that they had sworn to secrecy that they would never tell. But, the LORD will NEVER betray us.
When I think of how much I fail, I am amazed that GOD doesn't give up on me. I am amazed that GOD would come in human form and die a horrible death, suffer persecution and betrayal like no other, just so He could save me. I am not worth it, yet He felt I was. This week is a reminder of GOD'S love for us and the fact that He proves that His love for us has no limits.
Be Blessed,
