“For You, Lord, are good, and ready to forgive, And abundant in lovingkindness to all who call upon You.” Psalm 86:5 (NASB)
This verse has been chosen because we want to focus on the expression David has written in this prayer song. It is the expression “abundant in lovingkindness.” Other versions might read “abounding in steadfast love” or “abounding in love.” What does it mean that God is abounding or abundant in love? It means that He has so much love that it keeps flowing, it keeps running over. It means that no matter how much love He shows us there is still much more there for us to experience. In fact, He has an inexhaustible reserve and there is no way that our Lord will ever run out of His love that He has for us and shows to us. There is enough love in the heart of God to meet all our needs, to cover every situation that we will ever face. But our verse reminds us that in order to experience God's love we need to call to Him. He promises that He is good and ready to forgive and help every person that calls on Him. Let's call on Him today for whatever challenges we face or for whatever failures we've experienced. God is pouring out His love on us.
