00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:03.840
The Lord is righteous in all His ways and faithful in all He does.

2
00:00:03.840 --> 00:00:08.000
The Lord is near to all who call on Him, to all who call on Him in truth.

3
00:00:08.800 --> 00:00:13.680
Psalm 145, 17-18, New International Version

4
00:00:15.920 --> 00:00:19.840
This verse reminds us of two powerful truths about our God.

5
00:00:20.560 --> 00:00:22.800
First, He is righteous in all His ways.

6
00:00:23.360 --> 00:00:26.880
This doesn't mean life will be easy or that bad things won't happen.

7
00:00:27.440 --> 00:00:31.520
It does mean that God is always good, always just,

8
00:00:31.520 --> 00:00:36.160
and continually working for our ultimate good, even when we can't see it.

9
00:00:36.800 --> 00:00:40.160
Second, God's love is unwavering.

10
00:00:40.160 --> 00:00:43.440
It covers everything He has made, including you and me.

11
00:00:44.080 --> 00:00:49.520
No matter what we've done or how far we've strayed, His love for us remains constant.

12
00:00:50.160 --> 00:00:54.320
It is a never-ending source of grace and mercy.

13
00:00:55.120 --> 00:00:59.040
He is the one who lifts us back up when we're feeling down,

14
00:00:59.040 --> 00:01:01.520
restores our strength, and gives us hope.

15
00:01:02.160 --> 00:01:03.920
So, let's hold on to these truths.

16
00:01:04.480 --> 00:01:09.600
Remember that God is good, loves us fiercely, and is always there for us.

17
00:01:10.240 --> 00:01:12.960
When life knocks us down, let's turn to Him.

18
00:01:13.600 --> 00:01:17.920
He is the one who will pick us back up and help us continue moving forward.

19
00:01:18.640 --> 00:01:20.800
You are strong and resilient.

20
00:01:20.800 --> 00:01:27.280
With God by your side, you can overcome any obstacle that comes your way.
