A Prayer to Trust God’s Unfailing Love - Your Daily Prayer - March 18

Read or Listen Below:

Human love often falls short. We’ve all experienced heartache when someone’s actions or words didn’t meet our expectations. Whether it’s the sting of rejection, the pain of betrayal, or simply the absence of care, our hearts can feel empty and longing for something more. But God’s love is different. Unlike human love, His love is perfect, steadfast, and unfailing.

Psalm 136 reminds us of this truth with its repeated refrain: “God’s love never fails.” Generation after generation has experienced His faithfulness, and His love for us remains as constant and inexhaustible as ever. When we feel empty or unloved, we can look back on God’s provision in our own lives and in the stories of Scripture. His love fills every void, heals every wound, and overflows so we can share it with others. In a world of fleeting affections, God’s love is the one thing we can trust to never change.

Let’s Pray:

Father, my heart has been broken by the imperfections of human love, and I confess that I sometimes doubt Your love in those moments. But You have proven over and over again that Your love is constant and never fails. Thank You for the ways You have shown me Your faithfulness and care. Help me to trust in Your unfailing love, even when my heart feels empty. Fill me with Your love so completely that it overflows into the lives of others. Remind me that Your love is the only love that can truly satisfy. In Jesus’ name, amen.
