deep pause

I take a deep pause when I’m singing aloud and get to the part that says I’ll never turn away from God, I’ll always praise, I’ll always remain steadfast.

I mean I WANT to sing this at the top of my lungs, but can I? How can I know beyond a doubt that I will ALWAYS do this? I’ve let myself down before.

I used to think I let God down too, but not so much anymore. I feel more loved by God than I ever have in my entire life. Has anything changed with Him? Of course not.

I just know Him better than I ever have, it’s me that’s drawn closer. And as I’m here, I realize how fragile my performance is, how my behavior could change at any moment. So, I don’t rely on my ability to never turn away from God, to always praise Him, or to remain steadfast. I know I’m fallible. But God - He won’t turn away from me, He is worthy, He is always steadfast. Those things I can sing at the top of my lungs, because they will always be true.🔆
