Here are a few words from a song we sang at church last weekend, “Your Love Never Fails” by Chris McClarney:<\/p>\n

\n
I know I still make mistakes<\/address>\n
But you have new mercies for me everyday<\/address>\n
Your love never fails<\/address>\n
———————————-<\/address>\n
And when the oceans rage<\/address>\n
I don’t have to be afraid<\/address>\n
Because I know that You love me<\/address>\n
Your love never fails<\/address>\n<\/blockquote>\n

As we were singing this song, I began to think about the contrast of how I fail quite often, yet God never fails, and His love never fails.\u00a0 Normally I am very fearful of failure and try my best to avoid it.\u00a0 This usually results in being indecisive because I’m so afraid of making the wrong decision.\u00a0 It’s been my experience that people reject you when you fail, and I dont’ want to be rejected.\u00a0 The good news is that God is not like people.\u00a0 He does not reject me or withhold His love from me.\u00a0 His love never fails.\u00a0 As I thought about this, I was filled with an overwhelming feeling of safety.\u00a0 It’s okay if I fail because I’m safe in God’s love.<\/em><\/p>\n
