Verse from Psalms

“因为他知道我们的本体,记得我们不过是尘土。”
‭‭诗篇‬ ‭103:14‬ ‭

“For He Himself knows our frame; He is mindful that we are but dust.”
‭‭Psalms‬ ‭103:14‬ ‭

David writes of our God who is “compassionate and gracious, slow to anger, abounding in love” (v. 8). He then continues by invoking the image of an earthly father who “has compassion on his children,” and even more so “the Lord has compassion on those who fear him” (v. 13).

God our Father “knows how we are formed, he remembers that we are dust” (v. 14). He knows we’re small and fragile.

We often fail and are overwhelmed by what this big world hands us. What an amazing assurance to know of our Father’s patient, ever-present, abounding love.

Thank You for being our patient, present Father who remembers who and what we are.
