Praise His Character
But you, O Lord, are a God of compassion and mercy, slow to get angry and filled with unfailing love and faithfulness.
Psalm 86:15 (NLT)
Thought
It’s one thing to have a powerful being, but another to have a powerful being who’s good. We can trust God because of His character. Most people don’t do well with power. However, God wields it perfectly.
