In Israel’s eyes, Egypt’s animosity was a terrible thing. Yet, it was orchestrated by God to ultimately bring freedom to His people. What may appear to be bad just may be something that God, in His wisdom, has allowed for our ultimate good.
No matter what we’re going through, He is good, His mercy endures forever. This is cause enough for us to give thanks in any circumstance.
This verse got me to thinking: how is making His wonderful works remembered an act of graciousness and compassion? One way I’ve thought about is that having a record of God’s faithfulness in the past gives us hope for what lies ahead—for we are serving the God Who never changes!
Again, you've presented some great scripture!
ReplyDeleteIt's good to have reminders of God's mercy and compassion especially today. May we never forget get those who lost their lives 16 years ago. I was 5 when 9/11 happened and I still haven't gotten over it. Never Forget!
God bless America!
God is always merciful. God never lets us down. God Bless all from 911. This is a sad day in America. Living in New York, 911 was very painful to watch all the destruction and loss of lives. We had a friend who lost a brother.
