“The mistake we so often make is thinking that God’s interest and care for us waxes and wanes according to our spiritual temperature.” - Eugene Peterson
I’ve made this mistake often, and I’m guessing many of you have too. What we see and what we feel can never change God’s interests and care for us. We all need to be reminded of this truth and encouraged to live in it. The ebb and flow of our emotions and circumstances vary greatly from days of ease and comfort to days filled with struggle and discouragement. God’s favor does not ride the waves of our emotions or circumstances. God’s favor for you flows from His love expressed in His promise to never leave you or forsake. Favor is the promise of God’s presence accomplishing His presence in and through your life.
