“Blessed be the Lord: for He hath shewed me His marvellous kindness” (Psalm 31:2121Blessed be the Lord: for he hath showed me his marvellous kindness in a strong city. (Psalm 31:21)).
What a kind Lord we have! Today I have a better appreciation and a larger understanding of that kindness than ever before. I can say from experience and with no hesitation, “His merciful kindness is great toward us” (Psalm 117:22For his merciful kindness is great toward us: and the truth of the Lord endureth for ever. Praise ye the Lord. (Psalm 117:2)).
Here is what David says on the matter:
His kindness, oh how precious,
It fills my soul with praise;
I’ve known His loving kindness,
Throughout my pilgrim days;
His kindness ever thrills me,
That kindness round me poured;
My soul enlarged and grateful,
I cannot doubt my Lord.
His kindness, oh so tender,
I know it very well,
It saved my soul for heaven,
Delivered me from hell:
And now that kindness carries
Me safe along life’s way,
Compassionate and gentle,
Preserving every day.
“Thy lovingkindness is before mine eyes: and I have walked in Thy truth...How excellent is Thy lovingkindness, O God! therefore the children of men put their trust under the shadow of Thy wings...The Lord will command His lovingkindness in the daytime, and in the night His song shall be with me, and my prayer unto the God of my life” (Psalm 26:3; 36:7; 42:83For thy lovingkindness is before mine eyes: and I have walked in thy truth. (Psalm 26:3)
7How excellent is thy lovingkindness, O God! therefore the children of men put their trust under the shadow of thy wings. (Psalm 36:7)
8Yet the Lord will command his lovingkindness in the daytime, and in the night his song shall be with me, and my prayer unto the God of my life. (Psalm 42:8)).
“That in the ages to come He might shew the exceeding riches of His grace in His kindness toward us through Christ Jesus” (Ephesians 2:77That in the ages to come he might show the exceeding riches of his grace in his kindness toward us through Christ Jesus. (Ephesians 2:7)).
