The love of the Lord is steadfast. It suffers much and lasts forever. It is covenantal. It endures because it said it would. This song highlights a familiar pattern. God initiates, we respond. God establishes His promise. We break faith with Him and suffer the consequences. And at some point, Lord willing, we cannot bear it any longer and cry out to Him for help. Sometimes only after seeking help from every other imaginable outlet, but by His drawing, we are compelled to call out for Him. And He shows up because of His steadfast love. He is not withholding, we are. He is a rock. We are rocky. He is the fixed foundation of the ocean floor. We are the constantly moving current being tossed to and fro above.
