"The LORD is gracious, and full of compassion; slow to anger, and of great mercy. "
Psalm 145:8
This is David's psalm of praise. I love the way he talks about the LORD. He refers to Him in so many ways in this psalm -as royalty, as eternal, as all-powerful, and magnificent. In so many ways I am reminded of all the great things that the Creator of the universe has done.
But truly the greatest act He has performed, the greatest task He has completed, the greatest miracle... is me. His mercy to a wretched, low-down, filthy, rotten, no-good sinner, or as I mentioned before, a me.
It was through Jesus's sacrifice on the cross that I was made the righteousness of God! (2 Cor 5:21)
What greater thing could He do, than to make a sinner holy?
His love and mercy to me are His most powerful displays.
His patience towards us deserves all of my praise.
So today I'm going to beg Him to help me live every day remembering what He has done for me, to be thankful, and to praise Him!
How about you?
