“Yet He, Being Compassionate” READ Psalm 78:32–55
Yet he, being compassionate, forgave their iniquity, and did not destroy them; often he restrained his anger, and did not stir up all his wrath.
Psalm 78:38
While some tally the sins of men and women and conclude that there is no hope for humanity, others notice that the grace of Christ is even more evident—establishing salvation, developing reconciliation, and building the Kingdom of God.
PRAYER: I will not be disheartened, O God, by those who tell me stories of human decadence and society’s disintegration; I have heard those stories before. Instead I will see every sin as a place where your forgiveness can operate and every rebellion as a focus for your redemption. You are more than a match for sin—mine and everyone’s. Amen.
Peterson, Eugene H. (2010). Praying with the Psalms
