Witnessing God’s Love

//

For you, O Lord, are good and forgiving, abounding in steadfast love to all who call upon you.

Psalm 86:5 (ESV)


A Prayer of David


David’s prayer speaks of God’s goodness and His capacity to forgive His children when they transgress His Word and His direction.


When God hears us pray to Him, recognizing that we have sinned, He forgives us and chooses to forget. When God forgets those sins, He never brings them up to His children ever again.


For you, O Lord, are good and forgiving-David has received God’s forgiveness and truly believes that God has been good to him and has forgiven David for his sin.


abounding in steadfast love- David has witnessed God’s love many times over.


Likewise, God forgives us our sins, even those that we have forgotten. His love for us is as strong for us today as it was when we asked Him into our hearts.


Father God: We thank You for your undying, wonderful, love for each of us. We thank You for our salvation, so rich and free. In Jesus’ Name, I pray. AMEN

    I started typing my comment and it suddenly disappeared. If it shows up somewhere, you'll understand why it wasn't finished. LOL. I was saying, Praise God that His love never fails, and neither do His mercies. We are so blessed to be His beloved children whom He loves and forgives. Thank you for this post. Have a blessed week.

      Marja: I love the word abounding it tells me that God's love will never end. It also speaks to me when I am 'down' that I am greatly loved in spite of what has happened. Peace and blessings to you and yours.
