Tender Mercies
There was a time in my life when I tried to live perfect. The harder I tried the more I failed. Like the apostle Paul in Romans 7, I became frustrated. My spirit wanted to, but the flaw in my flesh didn't. God loved me and kept me anyway.
Psalm 103:4 Who redeemeth thy life from destruction; who crowneth thee with lovingkindness and tender mercies:
Nobody does mercy and kindness like The Lord. He's the Father who tenderly and lovingly cares for the needs of His children. He tempers them by grace.
We don't have to fear anything because the precious lovingkindness and tender mercies of God crowns us wherever we are and whatever we do. We can trust Him to guide and protect us.
I would be nothing without Him.
