GOD NEVER DISAPPOINTS

Acts 2:37-47

"The promise is for you and your children and for all who are far off--for all whom the Lord our God will call" (Acts 2:39)

My in-laws owned a print shop for 40 years. Their quality work permeated the small towns around their business and satisfied their customers. Their first priority was integrity! I thought of them when I read about a printer in a large city who had an impressive trademark on every package he sent out. It read, "I never disappoint." I think that was the motto of my in-laws.

God is like that. Every promise of the Lord ever made to his people has that trademark inscribed into the fiber of life--"I never disappoint." 

List some of God's promises to you today. Here are a few to get you started.....


* Salvation: "The salvation of the righteous is from  the Lord" (Ps.37:39,NRSV)
  
* Guidance: "(God) will be our guide forever" (Ps. 48:14,NRSV).

* Love for Eternity: "For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes        in him shall not perish but have eternal life" (John3:16)

 * God Cares: "Cast all your anxiety on him because he cares for you" (1Pet. 5:7)

"God never disappoints" should become our motto for life.


The future is as bright as the promises of God (William Carey).
