Like as a father pitieth his children, so the Lord pitieth them that fear him. — Psalm 103:13 KJV
As a father has compassion on his children, so the Lord has compassion on those who fear him. — Psalm 103:13 NIV
Reflection for Today's Verse
God loves and cares for each of His own with a tender heart that is far greater than any earthly father’s love and care. He knows our different flaws. He knows our bodies, our weaknesses, and the fact that we are just dust. But because of His kindness and mercy, He saved us from a mud pit and gave us so much of His grace that we should always praise His holy name.
Let’s always bless the Lord with everything we have and never forget all the good things He has done for us. He forgives all our sins, heals all our illnesses, saves our lives from the pit, crowns us with kindness and compassion, and fills our years with good things. Let’s never forget that the Lord has compassion on all of us who fear Him, just like a father has compassion on his children. He deserves ALL the honor and praise, forever and ever.
My Prayer
Heavenly Father, thank you for being such a wonderful, caring father to all of Your children who were bought with blood. Thank You that You know how weak we are on the inside and don’t forget that we’re just dust. I praise and thank You for all the good things and blessings You give us every day and every moment. Thank you for taking care of us and giving us so many good things because we believe in Jesus. May I never take these things for granted, and may I always praise Your holy name for being good and kind. In the name of Jesus, Amen.
