That God can be known by the soul in tender, personal experience while remaining infinitely aloof from the curious eyes of reason constitutes a paradox best described by F. W. Faber: darkness to the intellect but sunshine to the heart. (A. W. Tozer)
What is man that You are mindful of him? The son of man that You care for him? You have made him a little lower than the angels and crowned him with glory and honor (Psalm 8:4-5).
For as high as the heavens are above the earth so great is His love for those who fear Him. As far as the east is from the west so far has He removed our transgressions from us (Psalm 103:11-12)
Blessed be the Lord who daily loads us with benefits (Psalm 68:19).
He heals the broken hearted and binds up their wounds. He determines the number of the stars and calls them each by name. Great is the Lord Almighty in power. His understanding has no limit (Psalm 147:3-5).
But God is a God who not merely restores but takes up our mistakes and follies into His plans for us and brings good out of them. This is part of the wonders of His gracious sovereignty. This is God’s promise. This is how good God is!
You are the God who performs miracles. You display Your power among the peoples (Psalm 77:14)
He causes [clouds/rain] to come whether for correction [discipline], or for His land [sustenance], or for mercy [forgiveness]. (Job 37:13)
God’s love is such that He accepts us just the way we are but refuses to leave us there. We can be so difficult, but God can be so patient!
He has made everything beautiful in its time. He has also set eternity in the hearts of men, yet they cannot fathom what God has done from beginning to end (Ecclesiastes 3:11).
“He has set eternity in their hearts.” To be made for eternity and forced to dwell in time is for mankind a tragedy of huge proportions. All within us cries for life and permanence, and everything around us reminds us of only mortality and change. Yet that God has made us from the stuff of eternity is both a glory yet to be realized, and a prophecy yet to be fulfilled. (A W Tozer)
The Lord upholds all those who fall and lifts up all who are bowed down. The eyes of all look to You, and You give them their food at the proper time. You open Your hand and satisfy the desires of every living thing (Psalm 145:14-16).
O the depths of the riches of the wisdom and knowledge of God! How unsearchable His judgments and His paths beyond tracing out! (Romans 11:33)
Throughout the expanse of creation God has hidden things for us to discover, to enjoy, and with which to perceive the nature of our Creator.
He upholds the cause of the oppressed and gives food to the hungry. The Lord sets prisoners free. The Lord gives sight to the blind. The Lord lifts up those who are bowed down. The Lord loves the righteous. The Lord watches over the alien and sustains the fatherless and the widow… (Psalm 146:7-8)
Blessed are You, Lord God of Israel, our Father forever and ever (1 Chronicles 29:10).
