Psalms 103


Verse 8-10

“The Lord is merciful! He is kind and patient and his love never fails.
The Lord won’t always be angry and point out our sins;
He doesn’t punish us as our sins deserve.”

How much punishment do we deserve? We deserve the worst of hell.  He has enough mercy even to let us live ignorantly of this.  Without His protection we will not be able to escape. Truth is inescapable, we cannot avoid our verdict (See Psalms 139:7).  There is no death that will keep us from judgment.  God rules all, Life rules all (See Psalms 139:10).  We cannot escape life.  All we can do is submit to it, and everything it throws at us.  I kneel at your feet Lord, as I willing bear all the agony that you have set for me.  Refine me with your fire.
