Psalm 145:9
Psalm 145:9
The LORD is good to all: and his tender mercies are over all his works.
The Lord’s goodness is universal, extending to all people, regardless of their background, status, or actions. This verse speaks to the boundless nature of God's mercy, which is not limited by human conditions but is lavishly poured out on all His works. His tender mercies encompass everything He has created, reflecting His deep love and care for His creation. This verse calls us to recognize that the mercy of God is not only a theological concept but a real, active force in our lives and in the world. We are beneficiaries of this mercy, and our response should be one of gratitude and reverence. God's goodness is not based on our performance or worthiness but on His nature. He extends mercy to all, teaching us to do the same. We are encouraged to follow His example by being generous in mercy, understanding that we too are in need of His grace every day. By showing mercy to others, we reflect His love and goodness in the world.
