Journaled Verses: Steadfast Love

Let me share with you. . .

As we go through these weeks learning about being love, I’ll share some verses and thoughts from my 2024 journal about love. Today’s entry was originally written on August 23rd. . . the day I closed on my house.

“When I thought, ‘My foot slips,’ your steadfast love, O Lord, held me up. When the cares of my heart are many, your consolations cheer my soul.” ~ Psalm 94:18-19 ESV

What is true about God?

  • He loves me with steadfast love
  • He holds me up
  • He consoles me (comfort in grief or disappointment)
  • He cheers my soul

The God of the Universe cares enough to do these things!!


What is true about the world?

  • The world gives me cares that are heavy, and I can’t carry them alone

What is true about me?

  • My foot will slip because I can’t walk in my own strength
  • My heart will have cares because living in this world is hard

How do these truths change my life today?

  • God “has me” in all things. Hard moments will come, but God will hold me, and even cheer my soul! Therefore I can rejoice during difficult and overwhelming times!
  • God is with me day and night: “By day the Lord commands his steadfast love, and at night his song is with me, a prayer to the God of my life.” (Psalm 42:8 ESV)
  • God is with me and is in control of all things. I need to be active and intentional at setting Him before me, relying on His promises of steadfast love – He wants me to reply on Him: “I have set the Lord always before me; because he is at my right hand, I shall not be shaken.” (Psalm 16:8 ESV)
  • I am assured of God’s steadfast love for me because Jesus already died and rose for me: “He who did not spare his own Son but gave him up for us all, how will he not also with him graciously give us all things?” (Romans 8:32 ESV)

May you go through this week assured of God’s steadfast love for you!
