Psalm 18:50b, “he shows unfailing kindness to his anointed,”
[Your faithfulness endures forever, your grace flows endlessly, your goodness never fails. In your kindness you are ever the trustable One, always carrying us through the battle as we rest in you and, as we keep on your armor, you carry us onto the heights and to new victories beyond.]
“to David and his descendants forever.”
[And so, you have proved faithful in protecting the line of David down through the ages, from Abraham to Joseph and Mary.
You brought the promised Savior at just the right time, confirming your unfailing kindness to all people, both Jews and Gentiles. You are the Lover of the twisted ones, Redeemer of the rebels, Savior of your evil enemies and Shepherd of the scattered flock.
Praise be to you for your, humanly speaking, unreasonable Love, your illogical grace, your outrageous kindness, your amazing goodness–all poured out upon us day by day when we actually deserve the opposite. Glory be to you, the Great and Good God.
Help us to walk in the light of these shining Truths every day.]
