GOD’S FAITHFULNESS NEVER ENDS.
Sister Jasmine Anne B. Lee
"WHEN EVERYTHING CHANGES, GOD REMINS THE SAME."
Ngayong ang ang mundo ay nagkakagulo, kanino tayo dapat kumapit?
Sometimes, faith is not about having all the answers.
It is choosing to remain with God even when we do not understand what He is doing.
All we need to do is:
to wait
to trust
to obey
and to have faith
Lamentations 3:22–23 reminds us that His unfailing and steadfast love is always new every morning, and that becomes a quiet reminder that God has carried us this far, His grace is always fresh and is still enough for today.
The book of Lamentations was written in the middle of devastation.
It is a book filled with grief, sorrow, loss, and the pain of the people who had witnessed their world fall apart.
That is what makes Lamentations 3:22–23 so meaningful.
The writer did not speak about God’s faithfulness from a place of comfort.
He spoke while surrounded by devastation.
And even when everything seemed hopeless, he remembered that God was still there.
Ganito rin sa buhay natin.
Hindi palaging maganda ang takbo ng buhay.
Hindi palaging masaya.
Hindi palaging madali.
May mga panahon na mapapagod tayo, masasaktan, madidismaya, at magtatanong kung kailan matatapos ang pinagdadaanan natin.
But just like the people in Lamentations, we can still have hope, not because our circumstances are always good, but because God is always good.
Makikita rin natin ang lalim ng pag-ibig ng Diyos sa Garden of Eden.
Nang magkasala sina Adam at Eve, they hid because of shame and fear.
Yet God was the One who sought them, called out to them, and came looking for them.
Hindi sila ang unang lumapit.
Ang Diyos ang unang naghanap.
This proves how great is the love of God for us.
Even when we fail, even when we hide, even when we feel unworthy because of our mistakes. God does not stop reaching for us.
His love is not easily withdrawn. He continues to call us back into His presence.
AND HE ALWAYS WELCOMES US.
The greatest distance between us and God is not that He has moved away from us,
but that we are too afraid, too ashamed, or too proud to come back to Him.
Kaya kailangan nating matutong lumapit sa Diyos.
Alisin natin ang pride na nagsasabing kaya natin ang lahat mag-isa.
Let go of the need to control everything.
Matutunan nating mag-depend completely on what God can do, because there are things in life that our own strength simply cannot carry.
We don't have to fix ourselves first before coming to God.
We come to Him because we need Him.
1. God is faithful even when we are in a difficult situation.
SIYA AY TAPAT SA LAHAT NG PANAHON.
Let us go back to the book of Lamentations.
When we look at the context of this book, Jerusalem had been destroyed.
The people were experiencing deep suffering, loss, and uncertainty.
Their future seemed unclear, and everything around them appeared to be falling apart.
Yet, in the middle of all that pain, Jeremiah was still able to declare the faithfulness of God: “Great is Thy Faithfulness.”
This teaches us that when life becomes painful and overwhelming,
we do not have to run away from God, we can run toward Him.
We are welcome in His presence even when our hearts are filled with sorrow, disappointment, fear, and confusion.
We do not need to hide what we feel from Him.
God already knows the deepest pain within us, and He invites us to bring those burdens before Him.
God allows us to cry, to ask for help, to seek comfort, and to admit that we are hurting.
Because sometimes, we think that being strong means pretending that everything is okay.
But when we constantly hide our pain, ignore our struggles, and convince ourselves that we are fine when we are not,
we may be closing ourselves off from the healing and comfort that God wants to bring into our lives.
So come to Him.
Come to Him even when it hurts.
even when your strength is gone.
even when you can no longer sing.
even when you don't know what to say.
even when you feel like you have lost the battle.
even when you cannot understand why things are happening.
And even when nothing seems to make sense.
Because God's faithfulness does not depend on how strong we are.
He remains faithful even when we are weak and hurting.
SO PROVE YOUR FAITH.
HAVE FAITH IN THE MIDDLE OF DIFFICULTY.
Because it reveals who we are in difficult seasons.
MAHIRAP, pero we should overcome it! So we can grow more deeply.
2. Gods faithfulness is greater than our failures.
There are moments when our own failures become the reason we distance ourselves from God.
We say:
“Nagkamali ako.” “Makasalanan akong tao.” “Hindi ako karapat-dapat.”
“Nakakahiyang humarap sa Diyos.”
And because of shame, guilt, and condemnation,
we begin to believe that we have to fix ourselves first before we can come back to Him.
But that is wrong.
Those feelings can become our fig leaves, just like Adam and Eve, we try to hide because we are ashamed of what we have done.
We cover ourselves. We create distance. We build walls between ourselves and God.
But God never asked us to hide.
Our failure is not a reason to run away from God. It is a reason to run back to Him.
Our mistakes do not disqualify us from coming to the Lord.
In fact, when we recognize our brokenness, that is exactly when we need His grace, mercy, forgiveness, and restoration the most.
Scripture reminds us:
“If we are faithless, He remains faithful, for He cannot deny Himself.”
Look at the people throughout the Bible who experienced failure, weakness, and moments of disobedience.
Some denied Jesus. Some fell into serious sin. Some ran away from God's calling. Some made choices they deeply regretted.
Yet their failures were not the end of their stories. God continued to pursue, correct, restore, and use them according to His purpose.
Their stories remind us that God does not stop being faithful simply because His people fall short.
So do not allow your failure to convince you that God has stopped loving you.
BECAUSE YOUR FAILURE DOES NOT CANCEL GOD'S FAITHFULNESS.
3. GOD IS FAITHFUL IN THE WAITING TIME
ONE OF THE HARDEST TIMES TO TRUST GOD IS THE SPACE BETWEEN THE PROMISE AND THE FULFILLMENT.
Sometimes, the waiting is harder than the actual battle.
We pray, we believe, we hold on to His Word, but nothing seems to be happening.
“Lord, kailan?”
“Nakalimutan Mo na ba ako?”
But throughout the Bible, we see people who had to wait before they saw God's promises fulfilled.
Abraham waited. Joseph waited. David waited.
Their stories remind us that God's promise does not always come instantly.
But God is never late. God is faithful even in the waiting.
Isaiah 55:10–11 reminds us that God's Word will accomplish the purpose for which He sent it. What God has spoken will not return empty. His Word will fulfill His intended purpose.
So when God makes a promise, remember:
IT WILL HAPPEN. IT WILL BE DONE. IT WILL BE COMPLETED.
Maybe not according to our timeline, but according to His perfect timing. For according to Ecclesiastes 3:11, God makes everything beautiful in its time.
Not in our time.
Not when we demand it.
Not when we think we are ready.
In His time.
And this is part of God's faithfulness.
The waiting season is not wasted time.
God is preparing us while we are waiting for the promise.
He is developing our character, strengthening our faith, teaching us patience, and preparing us for what He has prepared for us.
And when the time comes, receive what God has prepared, not simply what we wanted, but what is better, greater, and more perfect according to His will.
Because God's faithfulness does not mean that there will be no battles, no hardships, and no seasons of uncertainty.
It means that we will never face them alone.
We can say with confidence, “I will fear no evil, for You are with me.”
Therefore, remember:
MAS DAKILA ANG KATAPATAN NG DIYOS KAYSA SA ATING PAGKAKAMALI.
You may have made mistakes, but God did not make a mistake when He chose you.
“MAAARING NAGKAMALI KA, PERO HINDI NAGKAMALI ANG DIYOS NA PUMILI SA’YO.”
So do not let your past dictate your future.
Your past may explain where you have been, but it does not have the final authority over where God can take you.
God is the Author of your story.
And because He is faithful, you can still expect that He is writing something beautiful.
So continue to pray. Continue to serve. Continue to give. Continue to walk in your calling.
Because the God who gave the promise is the same God who will remain with you throughout the waiting.
GOD IS FAITHFUL.
IN THE BATTLE.
IN THE FAILURE.
IN THE WAITING.
AND IN THE FULFILLMENT.
AMEN AND AMEN.
TO GOD BE ALL THE HIGHEST GLORY!
