God’s Love Covers Human Frailty

Yesterday I wrote of God’s great compassion for us.  Today I found verses in Psalm (written by David) that describe His great mercy even more.

Psalm 103:

11 For his unfailing love toward those who fear him
is as great as the height of the heavens above the earth.
12 He has removed our sins as far from us
as the east is from the west.
13 The Lord is like a father to his children,
tender and compassionate to those who fear him.
14 For he knows how weak we are;
he remembers we are only dust.
15 Our days on earth are like grass;
like wildflowers, we bloom and die.
16 The wind blows, and we are gone—
as though we had never been here.
