Points to Ponder
6 The LORD works righteousness
and justice for all who are oppressed.
7 He made known his ways to Moses,
his acts to the people of Israel.
8 The LORD is merciful and gracious,
slow to anger and abounding in steadfast love.
9 He will not always chide,
nor will he keep his anger forever.
10 He does not deal with us according to our sins,
nor repay us according to our iniquities.
Points to Ponder:
Do you see it? Every verse in this selection exudes grace. Without the Gospel, without God, what does each one of us deserve? Oppression, ignorance, justice, wrath, anger and penalty. But by God's grace what do we (His children) receive? Righteousness, justice, insight and knowledge of the Holy, mercy, grace, abundant steadfast love and forgiveness. Can we rejoice in that today? By His grace, you and I didn't get what we deserved. Hallelujah!!
