Psalm
103: 7 He will not always chide. Nor will he keep his anger forever
Chide
is defined as “to express disapproval of; scold; reproach.” I am certainly more
deserving of reproach from God on a constant daily basis. Yet, that’s not how
God works; instead, He builds up and He teaches. He wants us to learn how to
attack our daily struggles without turning to sin. Although He never sacrifices
His holiness for anything; He also never desires to beat in our heads again and
again over our sin. I wonder if we offer others in our lives the same degree of
love as God shows us. For it is God’s love that is shown when He doesn’t rain
down His anger, which is justified, on those who deserve it; instead, He shows
us His love, and forbearance.
