Covenant of Love

O Lord, God of Israel, there is no God like you in heaven above or on the earth below -- you who keep your covenant of love with your servants who continue wholeheartedly in your way. 1 Kings 8:23 NIV 1984

God has bound himself to his children with a covenant of love.

Stronger than any marriage vow,
more powerful than death,
longer-lasting than the sun or moon or stars

— his covenant of love promises us
his presence, his favor, his blessings
throughout our lives and into eternity.


When I stay close to him, wrapped in his wings, I will go with him wherever he is going, and continue to experience his goodness to me.
