(64) The earth, O LORD, is full of thy mercy:
teach me thy statutes.
For a moment, it is good to stop and reflect on God's mercy
- it fills the earth! How do we know this? There is simple observation from
nature, but we are sure because of
God's Word.
"For thou, Lord,
art good, and ready to forgive; and plenteous
in mercy unto all them that call upon thee." (Psalm 86:5)
"But thou, O
Lord, art a God full of compassion, and gracious, longsuffering, and plenteous in mercy and truth."
(Psalm 86:15)
"The Lord is
merciful and gracious, slow to anger, and plenteous
in mercy." (Psalm 103:8)
"The Lord is
longsuffering, and of great mercy,
forgiving iniquity and transgression, and by no means clearing the guilty,
visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto the third and
fourth generation." (Numbers 14:18)
"The Lord is
gracious, and full of compassion; slow to anger, and of great mercy." (Psalm 145:8)
If this is the Lord, then why shouldn't I be willing to
learn from Him and of Him?
