God's kindness

I am your servant. Don’t try me in your court, because no one is innocent by your standards. ~ Psalm 143:2 (CEV)

Notice how God is both kind and severe. ~ Romans 11:22a (NLT)

KEY IDEA:
We are fortunate that God is not only severe but he is kind, too.
PRAYER:
Dear God, you have your standards. I don't measure up to them. So, I am eternally thankful for your kindness. You sent your Son into the world to work out mercy for all of us undeserving people. Yet, sometimes I act like I am better than I am. Help me to constantly tune into your kindness and to live in the humility that comes with recognizing your mercy. Amen.
