Psalm 62:11-12
One thing God has spoken, two things I have heard: ‘Power belongs to you, God, and with you, Lord, is unfailing love’; and, ‘You reward everyone according to what they have done.’
I don't know about you, but as I reflect on my past week I don't much like the idea of God rewarding me according to what I have done! It hasn't been as bad as it could have been. But I've still been selfish, impatient, more concerned about my own plans than serving others and more focused on my own kingdom than on listening to God and speaking to him in prayer.
How wonderful, then, that our God is full of both power and unfailing love. He alone has the power to defeat our sin and the death which we rightly deserve because of it. Yet his love means that he has chosen to rescue us and forgive us, by sending Jesus to die on the cross in our place. We can enjoy the reward of an eternity in God’s presence because of what Jesus has done. Praise God for his great power and his unfailing love. And let's pray that we would keep trusting in him, rather than in ourselves, today and every day.
