                   I Am The Faithful One

   "I am the Alpha and the Omega, the First and the Last, the 
    Beginning and the End."  -- Revelation 22:13
 
   "But I will not take My love from him, nor will I ever betray My
    faithfulness." -- Psalm 89:33 

I am the Alpha and Omega, there is nothing too hard for Me. I have 
kept you from the day you were born, and will keep you until the day 
you die. Trust in Me, and in My love for you, for I will not fail 
you. I have worked out your path for you and I will lead you in
it. Trust in My love and My provision for you. Many are faint and 
weary, this is because their faith is not in Me. Trust in My love 
and protection over you, I will keep you and bless you until the 
end. 

I am the Faithful One who keeps all things in place. I have ordained 
all things that exist, and My power is beyond comprehension. I give 
life to whom I will, to accomplish My purposes and bring glory to My 
Name. My love is poured out over those that acknowledge Me, and I 
have the power to save them from every threat. My faithfulness is 
without repentance and I will not fail those whom I love. Hold fast 
onto Me in these days, and I will prove Myself to you.
