Soulfood - The Lord is Gracious and Compassionate

 8 The LORD is gracious and compassionate,
   slow to anger and rich in love.

Psalm 145 (NIV)

***

This morning I was thinking about the character of our God, and Psalm 145 popped into my head.  I wasn't sure what I would find there, but when I opened it up to read it, verse 8 jumped out at me.  Look at all the amazing descriptors in it:  GRACIOUS.  COMPASSIONATE.  SLOW TO ANGER.  RICH IN LOVE.  God is everything I am not.  He is the only one who can fill me with the things in I need most:  more grace and compassion, a slowness to anger, a richness in love.  Today, I pray Lord that you would fill me!
