A beautiful post. I love the word steadfast; one of those terms with such deep and ancient meaning that would be good if it was used more frequently today.
Your post also got me thinking about how we often think of a promise or covenant as the thing between two or more people, or in this case, between humans and God. But there is also something about our purpose in life to become people of promise, of covenant, that these are not just external devices that are broken or upheld. Our journey is meant to be one where we more and more live this promise and covenant and have it be everything we are.

Wow. I love that. The idea that we are “a people of promise” is 🤯
