The Lord’s love endures forever

By Alisa Murray, a senior music education major from Orrville, Ohio

Scripture: Psalm 118:1-2, 14-24 (NRSV)

DEVOTIONAL:

As we arrive at Easter this coming week, we anticipate the resurrection of Jesus Christ. We are encouraged with the words from the psalmist, “The Lord’s love endures forever.” This particularly encourages me, at this time of year with the stress of school work, commitments and other elements of daily life, which seem to pile up and consume time. Even during busy schedules, I have found taking time to spend in the Word and other ways of connecting with God has encouraged and reminded me of the psalmist’s words, “The Lord’s love endures forever.” I am amazed at the simple yet powerful message behind these words.

When my schedule is out of control,
“The Lord’s love endures forever.”
When I spill soup on my laptop,
“The Lord’s love endures forever.”
When I am overwhelmed with school work,
“The Lord’s love endures forever.”
When I found out I need to take two online classes to graduate,
“The Lord’s love endures forever.”
When I found out I am teaching the entire class period and not just 30 minutes,
“The Lord’s love endures forever.”

Psalm 118 according to Alisa

Scripture: Psalm 118:1-2, 14-24 (NRSV)

O give thanks to the Lord, for he is good; his steadfast love endures forever!

2Let Israel say, “His steadfast love endures forever.”

14The Lord is my strength and my might; he has become my salvation.

15There are glad songs of victory in the tents of the righteous: “The right hand of the Lord does valiantly;

16the right hand of the Lord is exalted; the right hand of the Lord does valiantly.”

17I shall not die, but I shall live, and recount the deeds of the Lord.

18The Lord has punished me severely, but he did not give me over to death.

19Open to me the gates of righteousness, that I may enter through them and give thanks to the Lord.

20This is the gate of the Lord; the righteous shall enter through it.

21I thank you that you have answered me and have become my salvation.

22The stone that the builders rejected has become the chief cornerstone.

23This is the Lord’s doing; it is marvelous in our eyes.

24This is the day that the Lord has made; let us rejoice and be glad in it.
