Dear Young Christian:

Has someone recently broken a promise or let you down in some way? Maybe last week you were disappointed in a friend because they didn’t follow through on something they said they would do.

As you begin this week don’t forget that our God has made promises that cannot fail.

Solomon declared at the dedication of the temple: “According to all that He promised: there hath not failed one word of all His good promise, which He promised by the hand of Moses His servant” (1 Kings 8:56).

Paul said: “For all the promises of God in Him are yea, and in Him Amen, unto the glory of God by us” (1 Corinthians 1:20). So, the next time someone breaks a promise, remember, there are promises that will never be broken. Peter tells us, “Whereby are given unto us exceeding great and precious promises” (2 Peter 1:4). What wonderful confidence this gives us in trusting our God for every circumstance of life.

Your Christian Friend,

Jim Hyland
