Psalm 86:15

"But you, O Lord,
   are a God of compassion and mercy,
slow to get angry
   and filled with unfailing love and faithfulness."
 
These aspects of God's essential character are often repeated throughout Scripture. Merciful, gracious, slow to get angry, full of unfailing love and faithfulness. As you come to God today, take some time to meditate on these qualities. Thank and praise him for them. Merciful: not giving you what you deserve. Gracious: giving what you don't deserve. Slow to get angry: patient with you, even when you fail him repeatedly. Full of unfailing love and faithfulness: knowing you through and through and still loving you unfailingly. What a wonderful God!
