The LORD will perfect that which concerneth me: thy mercy, O LORD, endureth for ever: forsake not the works of thine own hands. — Psalm 138:8

First, we are sure that the LORD will finish what he has started in us (cf. Philippians 1:6). Second, there is a statement: “The LORD’s love lasts and never ends” (cf. 1 Corinthians 13:8). The last part is prayer: “Lord, don’t forget me, your creation” (cf. Psalms 139:13-16). What a lovely way for our walk with the Lord to be balanced.

Prayer

Heavenly Father and LORD of all, I am sure that you will do what you want and need to do through me. Seeing how you loved and helped the ordinary people in the Bible over the years, I know that your love will last long after I leave this place. But, dear LORD, I do have some problems and struggles, and I’m asking you to help me with your grace and power. In Jesus’ precious name I pray. Amen.
