Today’s Theme Accusation | Affirmation

Verse 9 | He will not always accuse...

Touched By God's Hand When you look back through the course of your life, do you see God’s hand? It was His hand that patted you on the back when you stepped out in faith, and comforted you when you were wounded. It was His hand that guided you through the darkness of the night, and it was His hand that chastened you when you sinned against Him.

Observation

One day, His accusations will cease and the opportunity for mercy and repentance will end. God strives to bring people to the truth; the reality that a life separated from Him is one that eventually leads to judgement. This process, or accusations as King David wrote, is rooted in His everlasting love and driven by a passion to be in a covenant relationship with you. Where is God’s hand in your life today? –DWIGHT DAVIS

LIFE CHANGERS Room for Improvement

Suggestion for Meditation God loves you enough to chasten you. Thought to Ponder How do you know if God is trying to get your attention?

Psalm 78:38-39 Isaiah 57:16

For the first time in our walks of faith, we found something so old and so basic that is seemed stunningly new and profound. We are all ragamuffins, and we are all endlessly wrapped in God’s arms of grace. { Michael W. Smith }
