"I will sing forever, O YAHWEH, of YOUR love, and proclaim YOUR faithfulness from age to age.
I will declare how steadfast is YOUR love, how firm your faithfulness.
YOU said, 'I have made a pledge to MY servant. I establish his descendants forever; I build his throne for all generations.'
He will call on me, 'YOU are my FATHER, my GOD, my Rock, my Savior.'
I will make him the firstborn, the highest of the kings of the earth."
- Psalm 89:2-3. 4-5. 27. 29
(Those very powerful words "love" and "faithfulness" occur in this psalm not without a purpose. JESUS has explained to us in no uncertain terms throughout the Gospel the power of these words. If only these could become part of our daily agenda, then we can assure ourselves of happiness here on earth and eternity.
Here is a good psalm to pray in times of national or international conflict. If a human being is injured, GOD is injured. The love of GOD is faithful. Despite everything, the love of GOD cannot turn back.)
