UPSIDE DOWN

I am the Lord, and I do not change. Malachi 3:6

Righteousness and justice are the foundation of your throne; steadfast love and faithfulness go before you.  Psalm 89:14

 

Upside Down

Have you ever lain on the grass and looked at all the stars when it's really dark outside? Or have you ever just leaned way back and looked up at a deep, blue clear sky, the leafy tree tops and the puffy white clouds?

Things look really different when you look at them upside down. They look really cool! Seriously, if you haven't tried it….try it! It's a little dizzying but it's neat.

When things are upside down in our personal worlds, well..that's not so nifty, and not so cool.

Upside down in our lives seems to come in sneaky and unexpected ways, taking us unaware and by surprise. It's not a stretch to easily get confused, upset, irritated or even panicky. Given a little time, though, most things sort themselves out.

And the good news here is even if your world does turn upside down there is always some you can turn to who is rock solid. You can always look to the Lord. Our Father God is 'hesed' - consistent, ever-faithful, relentless, constantly-pursuing, lavish, and extravagant love. And, He is always there for YOU. Believe me this is good news when things turn upside down.

Be blessed this week to be a blessing.

Because of the Lord's great love we are not consumed, for his compassions never fail. They are new every morning; great is your faithfulness.  Lam 3:22,23
