Psalm 103:8 – The Lord is merciful and gracious, slow to anger, and plenteous in mercy.
Today’s verse describes God’s attributes.
He demonstrated His love for us by showing His mercy, grace and long suffering through our Lord Jesus Christ.
The Lord is so merciful that He pardoned our sin.
The Lord is gracious that he bestowed His favor upon us.
He being Holy and righteous can be angry towards our transgressions yet demonstrates His patience in dealing with us and gives us opportunities for accepting His mercy.
Having experienced His blessings in Christ Jesus may we also along with the psalmist Bless the Lord and His Holy Name.
