When
Good Came Down "Thy
mercy, O LORD, is in the heavens; and thy faithfulness reacheth unto the
clouds. Thy righteousness
is like the great mountains; thy judgments are a great deep: O LORD,
thou preservest man and beast. How
excellent is thy loving - kindness, O God! Therefore the children of men
put their trust under the shadow of thy wings." Ps 36:5,6,7) God's
mercy is as great as the heavens. God's
mercy is as large as man's longing eye can see. The stores of Grace are as large as space and God's love as
large as he. These verses
leave us breathless. God is
so great. His faithfulness
also defies all attempts to measure it.
It reaches "unto the clouds."
His righteousness is as the highest mountain and his judgments
deeper than the sea. This
picture of God's greatness is greater still for it captures a largeness
in a little word that describes the Almighty.
God is kind. One
may love from "afar," but in order to be kind we much come
close. To be kind to
someone we must touch them. Two
thousand years ago, God
came down, and good came down
and was Kind. id |
