Deserve

(photo: Gleneagle,CO)

Who can comprehend the power of your anger? Your wrath is as awesome as the fear you deserve

Don’t excuse yourself by saying, “Look, we didn’t know, ”For God understands all hearts, and he sees you. He who guards your soul knows you knew. He will repay all people as their actions deserve.

"I the LORD search the heart and examine the mind, to reward a man according to his conduct, according to what his deeds deserve."

God makes everything come out right; he puts victims back on their feet... God is sheer mercy and grace; not easily angered, he's rich in love. He doesn't endlessly nag and scold, nor hold grudges forever. He doesn't treat us as our sins deserve, nor pay us back in full for our wrongs. As high as heaven is over the earth, so strong is his love to those who fear him. And as far as sunrise is from sunset, he has separated us from our sins.

"If you don't go all the way with me, through thick and thin, you don't deserve me. If your first concern is to look after yourself, you'll never find yourself. But if you forget about yourself and look to me, you'll find both yourself and me.

All you who fear God, how blessed you are! how happily you walk on his smooth straight road! You worked hard and deserve all you've got coming. Enjoy the blessing! Revel in the goodness!

Psalm 90:11 Proverbs 24:12 Jeremiah 17:10 Psalm 103:6 Matthew 10:38 Psalm 128:1

To ease another’s burden, help to carry it.
