Our Lent - Day 18

Our Lent Partners- Peter Wallace: "I invite you to read Psalm 78.

'Yet he, being compassionate, forgave their iniquity, and did not destroy them; often he restrained his anger, and did not stir up all his wrath. He remembered that they were but flesh, a wind that passes and does not come again.' (Psalm 78:38,39)

How could God be so forgiving? How could God justify having compassion for people who turned their backs to God? How could God so totally love a people who refused to love back?"
