God is eternal. He is love. Therefore, his love doesn’t give up on us. He’s faithful even when we aren’t. We fail, doubt, rebel, or wander away, but God stays resolute in his love and desire to see the best for us. He doesn’t leave us. God is omnipresent. Where could we go? When we struggle or reject him, he pursues, and his long-suffering calls us back to himself.
Jeremiah 31:3 quotes God saying, “I have loved you with an everlasting love; I have drawn you with unfailing kindness.” God’s love doesn’t wane or fade, doesn’t depend upon us. It flows from who he is as a loving Father who won’t stop loving us. He doesn’t break promises or covenants.
Peter denied Jesus three times the night before the crucifixion. At Jesus’ lowest point, Peter abandoned the Master (John 18:15-27). And yet, after the resurrection, Jesus restored Peter, addressing the issue and returning the disciple to his purpose (John 21:15-17). God didn’t give up on Peter, despite his failure. The Father does the same for us, offering us mercy and restoration if we return to him.
If we ever question God’s faithfulness or mercy, Lamentations 3:22-23 famously assures us, “Because of the Lord’s great love we are not consumed, for his compassions never fail. They are new every morning; great is your faithfulness.” We may fail him today, but his mercies are new every morning, fresh and full. He keeps showing up, making sure life and evil don’t consume us.
No matter where we are or what we’ve done, God hasn’t given up on us. Believe it and return to him.

Just as Hagar declared in Genesis 16:13: “You are the God who sees me,” we too can take comfort knowing our Creator never overlooks us. He formed us with intention, wrote every one of our days before we lived them, and keeps us always in His sight.
