“My flesh and my heart may fail,But God is the strength of my heart and my portion forever.”

How reassuring it is for me to read these words. Even in my weakness my God still accepts me. God not only accepts me but strengthens me. How patient and loving must this God be if He accepts me as imperfect as I am and offers to share His strength with me. The last word in the verse, forever, is also reassuring. His is not a temporary or one time intervention. God’s strength and love is forever if we choose to make it “my portion forever”.

GRACIOUS AND LOVING GOD, THANK YOU FOR ALL YOU HAVE EVER DONE FOR US. FORGIVE US WHEN WE DON’T ACCEPT YOUR STRENGTH AND LOVE FOR US. CONTINUE TO BE WITH US LORD. AMEN.
