You are Lord

But You, Lord, are a compassionate and gracious God, slow to anger, abounding in love and faithfulness. ~Psalm 86:15

You Lord are compassionate.  You care about me.  You care about what I go through and what I experience.  I matter to You.  My success matters to You.  Even my failures matter to You and because of your compassion You pick me up every time I fall.  I am your child and I am loved by You.

You Lord are gracious. You grant me favor.  You don’t give me what I deserve, but quite the opposite.  You give me life where I deserve death.  I earn nothing.  All that I have an am is because of your blessing.  It is a a gracious gift from You.  You, Lord,  give me gifts that enable me to serve and worship You.  You give me gifts that allow me to know you and receive your love.  You give me everything I need to live a godly life; a life that reflect You, my Lord and my Savior.

You Lord are slow to anger. You are so patient with me,  I mess up over and over again.  Yet, you show me mercy.  You extend your grace to me.  You forgive me and cleanse me with your blood.  You give me the time to learn from my mistakes and repent of my sins.  You restore me and give me hope. You could have taken me out years ago, but You knew the days You had planned just for me.  You let me see this life that You have planned just for me.

You, Lord, abound in love.  You are love.  Your love is pure and righteous.  It feeds my soul.  It covers me and brings me joy.  Your love is humble.  Your love covers a multitude of sins.  Your love sustains me.

You Lord are faithful.  You keep your promises.  Your promise to never leave me nor forsake me.  Your promise to heal me.  Your promise to provide for me and comfort me.  Your promise to hear my prayers and answer them.  Your promise to reward those who diligently seek You and believe in You.  Your promise of an abundant life and life eternal.

You are Lord and You alone are good.  I love you and I thank You for being God.
