God is Merciful

Meditations on the attributes of God.

Psalm 57:1 Be merciful to me, O God, be merciful to me, for in you my soul takes refuge; in the shadow of Your wings I will take refuge, till the storms of destruction pass by.

Psalm 86:15 But you, O Lord, are a God merciful and gracious, slow to anger and abounding in steadfast love and faithfulness.

We do not deserve God’s love, yet He feels compassion toward us. We deserved death yet we received life through the sacrifice of Jesus.

Hebrews 4:16 Let us then with boldness draw near to the throne of grace, that we may receive mercy and find grace to help in time of need.

Philip
