"Our life is full of brokenness – broken relationships, broken promises, broken expectations. How can we live with that brokenness without becoming bitter and resentful except by returning again and again to God's faithful presence in our lives?"
-Henri Nouwen
God is able to keep us from falling- He holds us tight in His hand, and nothing in all creation can separate us from His love. God's sovereign, sustaining grace is always with us, always lifting us up and filling us with power to live for Him.
And how can we trust this promise? Not because of who we are—frail and failing—but because of who God is.
God is our glorious, majestic, powerful God, author of life and king of the universe. The Bible not only speaks of the loving promises of God, but of all His divine power that will accomplish those promises for us who believe.
"To Him who is able to keep you from falling and to present you before His glorious presence without fault and with great joy—to the only God our Savor be glory, majesty, power and authority, through Jesus Christ our Lord, before all ages, now and forevermore! Amen." -Jude 1:24-25
[ from The Daily Verse Online ]
