Psalms 30 and 31 - Character of God

2 O Lord my God,
I cried out to you for help,
and you healed me.
3 O Lord, you brought me up from the grave.
You called me back to life
from among those who had gone into the pit.
Psalms 30:2-3 (GW)

5 His anger lasts only a moment.
His favor lasts a lifetime.
Weeping may last for the night,
but there is a song of joy in the morning.
Psalms 30:5 (GW)

11 You have changed my sobbing into dancing.
You have removed my sackcloth and clothed me with joy
Psalms 30:11 (GW)

15 My future is in your hands.
Psalms 31:15 (GW)

24 Be strong, all who wait with hope for the Lord,
and let your heart be courageous.
Psalms 31:24 (GW)

Reflection of B:

I can fully concur with the Psalmist in all the above verses. The Lord has done all the above to me in my depressed moments and saved me from the enemy's attacks. Even when I sinned, His anger is short-lived. He is full of love and compassion. Yes, my future is in His hands and I want to remain strong and courageous comes what may. Praise God for all He has done for me.


Dear Lord,
As I recall all the happenings in my life and how You led me through them I really felt so indebted to You. May my life be a blessing to those around me that they may know You the author of love.
In Jesus' name I praise You. Amen.
