Keeping His promises

This week Bonnie cued us with the line:

God will make a way

I am busy in the yard and garden, but thought the following post from the past fits in.

I have learned

that man

can twist the truth

side step, embellish

using words

that falsify

or fantasize

but my God says 

that He is not

a man

that He should lie

I must hear

His Words as truth

receiving all He promises

He leaves no room

for doubt

says in this world

you will have trouble

Yes troubles come

surprising 

with their sting

and in the moment

of catching breath

I must hear

His Words as truth

receiving all He promises

He leaves no room

for doubt

I will never leave you

Promises mixed

in eternal blend

I tip the cup

to drink them all

God is not human, that he should lie, not a human being, that he should change his mind. Does he speak and then not act? Does he promise and not fulfill?  Numbers 23:19 NIV

The LORD himself goes before you and will be with you; he will never leave you nor forsake you. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged Deuteronomy 31:8 NIV
