Psalm 103:8-14 (NIV):
"The Lord is compassionate and gracious,
slow to anger, abounding in love.
He will not always accuse,
nor will he harbor his anger forever;
he does not treat us as our sins deserve
or repay us according to our iniquities.
For as high as the heavens are above the earth,
so great is his love for those who fear him;
as far as the east is from the west,
so far has he removed our transgressions from us.
As a father has compassion on his children,
so the Lord has compassion on those who fear him;
for he knows how we are formed,
he remembers that we are dust."
Reflection Question:
Through this advent season, think back on the Character of God that has been revealed. Take some time to thank God for his compassionate, graceful, and forgiving character. Remember the Lord’s unchanging and unfathomable love, despite our shortcomings. How can you respond to such boundless grace in your daily life?
