So great is His mercy toward those who fear Him;
As far as the east is from the west,
So far has He removed our transgressions from us.
As a father pities his children,
So the Lord pities those who fear Him.
For He knows our frame;
He remembers that we are dust.
As for man, his days are like grass;
As a flower of the field, so he flourishes.
For the wind passes over it, and it is gone,
And its place remembers it no more.
But the mercy of the Lord is from everlasting to everlasting
On those who fear Him." Psalm 103: 11-17
On a motorcycle dinner ride Saturday night, we had the honor of witnessing another incredible sunset. This is one of the many things I love about living outside of a large city! During the winter, I get to see the sun rise on my way to work, and I watch it set on my way home. To me this is a promise from God. No, not that I am promised another day, but that His steadfast love has held me and will hold me from sunrise to sunset and to sunrise again. I'm safe in His care and am wrapped in His love and mercy.
