“O LORD, the God of Israel, there is no god like You in heaven or on earth, keeping covenant and showing lovingkindness to Your servants who walk before You with all their heart.” (2 Chronicles 6:14)
It is hard to reach adulthood without learning the lesson of guarding your heart. Most adults have felt the sting of a broken heart and the pain of being rejected by those we have made ourselves vulnerable to. Opening your heart to others comes with risk.
So how do we define God’s character? Unlike all others, you can walk before Him with all your heart and know that He will be kind, loving, and always keep His promises. He doesn’t reject the vulnerable, nor is He absent when we need Him most.
He is everything mankind aspires to be but falls short of. A God who can be trusted with our hearts.
Trust Him. He’ll see you through the darkness and the sorrow. He won’t desert you.
“for He has said, ‘I will never leave you nor forsake you.’ ” (Hebrews 13:5)
