Psalms 36:7 Devotional • Finding Refuge in God’s Unfailing Love

What does Psalm 36:7 mean?

God’s love is not distant or fragile—it is a safe refuge. Psalms 36:7 reminds us that we are invited to rest under the shelter of His unfailing love.

How priceless is your unfailing love, O God! People take refuge in the shadow of your wings.

- Psalms 36:7

The love of God is a priceless, free gift!

All the riches, money and fame in the world cannot compare to the treasure that is God’s unfailing love.

This unfailing love is given freely to anyone who wants it!

There is no fee or performance we must put on in order to earn God’s love.

Reflect on how your savior willingly went to the cross to endure unimaginable suffering for you.

His willingness to suffer is a result of the immeasurable love He holds for you.

While the temporary riches of this world will rust and decay, God’s unfailing love for you is eternal. This amazing wealth of love belongs to you forever, and no one can take it away!

Regardless of how much wealth we have here on earth, the priceless treasure of God’s love is our daily portion.

Knowing this free gift is secured for us in eternity, we can walk boldly through our life on earth every single day.

Today, be encouraged as you reflect on His love. Not only is it immeasurable and priceless, but it is unfailing! You can rely on His love more than anything or anyone else.

Your beloved savior has everything you need!

With Love,
Sarah Sherstad
