God's love

Even though the title has changed I'm still writing about what I'm being reminded of in the book of Psalms. I re-read chapter 6 and one verse really spoke to me. In verse 4 David asks the Lord to save him because of His unfailing love. As I started thinking about that I was reminded that everything God does for us is because of love. Whether that's forgiveness, healing, blessing, anything that we receive from God is because of His unfailing love. I know that sometimes we may think that our prayers were answered because we deserved it because we prayed a lot for it or because we read our bibles every day. God doesn't choose to bless us because we deserve anything, the truth of the matter is we do not deserve anything. We couldn't do enough, give enough, read enough, or even pray enough to truly deserve what the Lord blesses us with.
But that to me makes God even more incredible. To know that the God of the universe loves me enough to put up with all my crap and even though I am constantly failing Him he still loves me enough to save me because He loves me. Be reminded of the love that God has for you, it is something that could never be taken away and will never fail!
