God’s love and faithfulness
are constant and trustworthy.
Summer’s arrival
feels positive to many people but may not be smooth for all. Families
who rely on regular school meals for their children must stretch grocery
dollars further. Heat poses risks for elderly people who lack air
conditioning. Work can be difficult to find in the summer months, and
uncertainty looms for recent graduates. Meanwhile, concerns such as
wars, natural disasters and health problems don’t take a summer break.
St. Teresa of Avila (1515–1582) prayed, “May you be blessed forever, Lord, for being constant and unchanging, amidst all the changes of the world.” Her prayer is as appropriate today as nearly 500 years ago. When all around us is unstable and unreliable, God’s love and faithfulness are constant and trustworthy.
