The unfailing love of the Lord never ends! By his mercies we have been kept from complete destruction. Great is his faithfulness; his mercies begin afresh each day. (Lament. 3:22-23)

In the midst of hopelessness, Jeremiah clung to God’s faithfulness. Jeremiah saw one ray of hope in all the sin and sorrow surrounding him: “The unfailing love of the Lord never ends!

By his mercies we have been kept from complete ruin.” Jeremiah knew from personal experience about God’s faithfulness.

God had promised that punishment would follow disobedience, and it did.

But God also had promised future restoration and blessing, and Jeremiah knew that God would keep that promise also.

God has promised to return to rapture those that trust in Him. I still believe Jesus will return and take me back with him.

Trusting in God’s faithfulness day by day makes us confident in his great promises for the future.
