But God...

My health may fail, and my spirit grow weak,

but God remains the strength of my heart;

He is mine forever.

Psalm 73:26 (NLT)

            But God…. I love those two words. They whisper hope. They breathe expectation. They hint of transformation. They proclaim God’s sovereignty and His dominion over all of creation.

            But God… Two words so foundational to our faith. We were lost but God found us. We are sinful, but God offers pardon through Jesus. We merit nothing, but God pours out grace upon grace. We don’t deserve His love, but God offers Himself, completely, sacrificially.

            But God…. Two pivotal words that change everything. They bring light into our darkest nights. They offer hope to those who grieve. They provide strength to those who aren’t guaranteed another tomorrow. They remind us God can redeem our failures. They transform the impossible into the possible.

But God… Two little words that contain such a powerful promise. There is no place we go where He hasn’t preceded us. There is no problem that is too great for Him to resolve. There is no future He has not foreseen. There is no loss He will not redeem. Even death cannot separate us from God’s love.

But God… He is our strength. He is our refuge. He is ours forever.
