Through God's Eyes: Resting in God’s Unfailing Love

The steadfast love of the Lord never ceases; His mercies never come to an end; they are new every morning; great is Your faithfulness.

— Lamentations 3:22-23

Life often feels like a race—a constant push to achieve, prove, and do more. In the midst of it all, we sometimes forget that we are deeply loved simply for who we are, not for what we accomplish. God’s love is steadfast, unchanging, and unfailing. It is not something we earn; it’s a gift freely given.

Resting in God’s love is a choice to pause and embrace this truth. It’s allowing ourselves to stop striving and let His grace wash over us. When we root our identity in His love, the pressures of the world lose their hold, and we find peace in knowing we are held by the One who never lets us go.

This rest is not passive—it’s an active declaration of trust in His care. It’s saying, I don’t have to carry this alone. God’s love is enough for me. Resting in His love renews our strength, quiets our fears, and reminds us that His mercies are new every morning.

How to Rest in God’s Love

1. Pause and Reflect: Set aside time to dwell on the truth of His love for you.
2. Release the Burden of Striving: Remind yourself that you are already enough in His eyes.
3. Soak in Scripture: Meditate on verses that speak of His steadfast love and faithfulness.
