A forgiving God.
They refused to listen and failed to remember the miracles you performed among them. They became stiff-necked and in their rebellion appointed a leader in order to return to their slavery. But you are a forgiving God, gracious and compassionate, slow to anger and abounding in love. Therefore you did not desert them. Nehemiah 9:17
O LORD our God, you answered them; you were to Israel a forgiving God, though you punished their misdeeds. Psalm 99:8
The Lord our God is merciful and forgiving, even though we have rebelled against him; Daniel 9:9
I am exceedingly thankful that God continues forgiving me as I call out to Him. I know that I, like Israel, often do things *my* way and rebel against His ways.
Thanks Lord for Your forgiveness, grace, compassion, patience and abounding love. Amen.
