Poetic truth

Bless the Lord!
    He forgives
    He heals
    He redeems
    He crowns you with steadfast love & mercy
    He satisfies
    He renews
    He is righteous
                and works justice for the oppressed
    He is merciful
    He is gracious
    He will not hold His anger forever
    He is compassionate
    He remembers we are dust and sinful
    He flourishes
    Remember His commandments
    He is established in Heaven and on Earth
    Bless Him; fear Him
    He is everlasting

Reading Psalm 103 this morning; I was reminded of these powerful truths. We live in a deceitful world, parading our humanness with pride, this is no surprise to God.

He consistently presses in to each one of us and patiently waits on our ignorance.

Some of us (like myself) He waits longer, abundant patience and love, teaching and molding through correction, until we finally see.
Wisdom is earned as your eyes open to truth, knowledge flows when you seek truth. It’s everlasting and unchanging.

More truth relating to this topic can be found in Ephesians 2:1-10:

“And you were dead in the trespasses and sins in which you once walked, following the course of this world, following the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that is now at work in the sons of disobedience— among whom we all once lived in the passions of our flesh, carrying out the desires of the body and the mind, and were by nature children of wrath, like the rest of mankind. But God, being rich in mercy, because of the great love with which he loved us, even when we were dead in our trespasses, made us alive together with Christ—by grace you have been saved— and raised us up with him and seated us with him in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus, so that in the coming ages he might show the immeasurable riches of his grace in kindness toward us in Christ Jesus. For by grace you have been saved through faith. And this is not your own doing; it is the gift of God, not a result of works, so that no one may boast. For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand, that we should walk in them.”
