“耶和华有怜悯，有恩典，不轻易发怒，并且有丰盛的慈爱。”
诗篇 103:8
“The Lord is compassionate and gracious, slow to anger, abounding in love.”
Psalms 103:8
Psalm 103 may be one of the psalms prayed or sung after the people of God had returned from exile to a homeland that had been laid waste. In a moment of crisis, they needed to sing. But not just any song, they needed to sing about who God is and what He does.
Psalm 103 also helps us remember that He’s compassionate, merciful, patient, and full of faithful love (v. 8). And in case we wonder if the judgment for our sin still hangs over our heads, the psalm announces that God isn’t angry, He has forgiven, and He feels compassion. These are good things to sing about during the dark nights of our lives.
