Blessed Holy God,

We love You. We trust You. We need You. We want You. Thank You that You are ever present. Ever available. Ever. Always.

Mm, yes Father. You are ever. For ever. Psalm 48:14 states it clearly. Reading the various translations I have a bit of a smile, accompanying a deep sense of contentment. Thank You Father.

Thank You for the Truth and hope that Your Word proclaims to us. King James Version tells us, “For this God is our God for ever and ever; He will be our guide even unto death.”

The Living Bible says, “For this great God is our God forever and ever. He will be our guide until we die.” Other versions announce, “… He will be our guide for ever”; “… till the end”; “… from now on”.

Names of God Bible puts it even more encouragingly to me. “This Elohim is our Elohim forever and ever. He will lead us beyond death.” Mm. Yes, Father! Not just “until we die”. But beyond. Thank You Father. Praise You!
