HOW PRECIOUS IS OUR LORD’S LOVING-KINDNESS
How precious is Your loving-kindness, O God! Therefore the children of men put their trust under the shadow of Your wings. – Psalm 36:7
God’s loving-kindness is priceless! There is nothing that can compare or much less to replace it. It is the kindness of the Almighty God, the One that has all power in the universe! The protection offered by God is the most perfect and desired one by all who know it. What an honor we have to be loved and protected by God.
All God’s attributes are excellent, but for us, above all, is His mercy, because it is the most beneficial and needed. We need God’s loving-kindness more than anything, because often in life, we are weak or hurt. In His mercy, God constantly provides for all His creatures, including us. Encouraged by God’s mercy, even when we are frail in our weaknesses, we may take heart in trusting the safety and defense that we find under our Lord’s wings.
SUGGESTED PRAYER: Dear Lord, thank You so much for all the love, mercy and kindness You pour over me, every day! I am so blessed and happy to know that I can always find shelter under Your protective wings. Your shadow is always above me and covers me. You never failed my trust in You, dear Lord and You have always seen me through all the hardships, because of Your loving-kindness. Praises and glory to Your holy Name. Amen
