Who is mighty like You, O Lord?

You rule the raging of the sea;
When its waves rise, You still them.

This lesson I learn over and over again from reading the Bible. God is faithful. Gravity always has the same pull, the sun rises every morning. Life is hard AND joyful. We die. We have everlasting life. God loves us whether we believe it or not. He is faithful, ALWAYS.
Psalm 89:1-2
I will sing of the mercies of the Lord forever;
With my mouth will I make known Your faithfulness to all generations.
For I have said, “Mercy shall be built up forever;
Your faithfulness You shall establish in the very heavens.”
I will sing of the mercies of the Lord forever;
For I have said, “Mercy shall be built up forever;
Your faithfulness You shall establish in the very heavens.”

Are you too ashamed to lift your face to God? There is hope. Ever faithful, God sent his son to give us a way. Thank you God for your sacrifice.
Ezra 9:5-6
At the evening sacrifice I arose from my fasting; and having torn my garment and my robe, I fell on my knees and spread out my hands to the Lord my God.
And I said: “O my God, I am too ashamed and humiliated to lift up my face to You, my God; for our iniquities have risen higher than our heads, and our guilt has grown up to the heavens.

Here is the key to a successful spiritual life: prepare your heart to seek the Lord, then do it. Just do it!

Wouldn't you be fearless if you knew He was at your side and telling you exactly what to do next? We need to get to know Him well enough to open our ears. Listen: "Be of good cheer."
Acts 23:10-11
Now when there arose a great dissension, the commander, fearing lest Paul might be pulled to pieces by them, commanded the soldiers to go down and take him by force from among them, and bring him into the barracks.
But the following night the Lord stood by him and said, “Be of good cheer, Paul; for as you have testified for Me in Jerusalem, so you must also bear witness at Rome.”
