Psalm 145:8-9
The LORD is gracious and merciful, slow to anger and abounding in love. The LORD is good to all, compassionate to every creature.
Jesus says if you know Him then you know God (John 14:7). Who do we see in Jesus? We see a man who reaches out to those in pain, suffering and need. We see a man who does not condemn a woman caught in adultery but instead forgives her in love and thereby transforms her. We see a man who likens Himself to a “Good Shepherd” who refuses to let one sheep go astray. We see a man who personifies love, mercy, forgiveness and compassion. We see a man who would permit others to kill Him so that He could show that God responds with love even when rejected in the most extreme fashion. So this is Who God Is. And our Creator feels the same about not only each of us but about all of creation: “God looked at everything he had made, and found it very good” (Genesis 1:31). Allow this experience of God to settle in your soul.
