If you want that red cup, you have to act quickly because once it\u2019s gone, it\u2019s gone. This got me thinking\u2014how often do we approach life, faith, and even God\u2019s blessings with a sense of urgency? Do we recognize the precious opportunities God places before us, or do we let them pass by, assuming there will always be more time?<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s a fun concept for a coffee promotion, but it also highlights a reality we often face in life: scarcity. Supplies run out, opportunities fade, and resources can be exhausted. But what about God\u2019s love and care for us? Is it limited? Does it come with a \u201cwhile supplies last\u201d condition? Thankfully the answer is no! We cannot exhaust the love of God. Lamentations 3:22-23 tells us the answer clearly: \u201c<em>The steadfast love of the Lord never ceases; His mercies never come to an end; they are new every morning.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p>God\u2019s love is infinite, His grace is unending, and His faithfulness is constant. Unlike the red cups at Starbucks or the fleeting resources of this world, God\u2019s love for His children never runs out. Here is the truth:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>While supplies of joy, patience, or energy may run low in your life, God\u2019s supply of strength is inexhaustible.<\/li>\n<li>While relationships may falter and fail, God\u2019s love remains steadfast and unwavering.<\/li>\n<li>While the world offers temporary satisfaction, God offers eternal fulfillment.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>You never have to worry about being too late or about God running out of love for you. There\u2019s no fine print, no expiration date, no limited supply. His love is abundant and available to you every moment of every day.<\/p>\n<p>When you\u2019re feeling empty or weary, remember that God\u2019s grace is fresh every morning. When you\u2019re overwhelmed, know that His peace surpasses all understanding. And when life feels like it\u2019s running on empty, turn to the One whose resources are boundless.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Prayer for today<\/strong>:<\/p>\n<p><em>Lord, thank You for Your steadfast love that never ceases. While the things of this world may run out, Your care and grace never do. Remind me daily of the fullness of Your love and the endless supply of Your mercy. Help me to rest in the assurance that no matter what, You will always be there for me. In Jesus\u2019 name, Amen.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><u>\u00a0<\/u><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Monday, November 18 A Love That Never Runs Out The steadfast love of the Lord never ceases; His mercies never come to an end; they are new every morning; great is Your faithfulness.
