Psalm 145:8

The Difference in Slow and Fast
09/18/2023
Are you hot-tempered or does it take a lot to get you angry?  What kind of person would you rather be around – a hot-tempered or patient, loving one? What kind of Heavenly Father do you prefer? One quickly angered by your shortcomings or slow to anger?  If you said you’d rather be in a relationship with someone who is slow to anger and great in love, you’re on the same page as Psalm 145:8. Psalm 145 encourages us to give thanks for God’s name and to praise Him. Why?
The Lord is gracious and merciful; SLOW TO ANGER and great in lovingkindness.
Prayers of My Heart journal is a great place to record your thanks to God for all the ways He is revealed in the Bible.  It is also a thoughtful and meaningful gift for someone who is going through a hard time. Share with them the benefit of focusing on who God is and because of who He is, the many ways He can help them.

Lord, thank You for being SLOW to ANGER. We love You and thank You for revealing Yourself to us in the Bible. Each of Your character traits encourages us. Our souls are at peace knowing You are an ever-present help.

Do You Know What It Is to Be Greatly Loved
04/20/2023

Many people do not know what it means to be loved. But we do. We are the recipients of God and Jesus’s great lovingkindness towards us.  Psalm 145:8 clearly states their great love, “The Lord is gracious and merciful; Slow to anger and great in lovingkindness.” Say those words out loud. Personalize them.

“God is slow to anger with me. God is GREAT IN LOVINGKINDNESS toward me. God the Father has proved it by sending Jesus to earth to atone for my sins. Jesus has proved His great love for me by dying on the cross.”  

God is slow to anger. God is great in lovingkindness. Praise Him! Serve Him. Tell others.

LORD, we rejoice in and are humbled by Your GREAT LOVINGKINDNESS!

Are you hot tempered or does it take a lot to get you angry? Do people have to squeak out an affirmation of your love or are you known for being a loving person? What kind of person would you rather be around – a hot tempered unloving person or a patient, loving one? What kind of Heavenly Father do you prefer? One who is quickly angered by your shortcomings or slow to anger; One who is somewhat loving toward you or One who has great love for you? If you said you’d rather be in a relationship with someone who is slow to anger and great in love, you’re on the same page as Psalm 145:8. Psalm 145 encourages us to give thanks for God’s name and to praise Him.  Prayers of My Heart journal is a great place to do that.
