Psalms 116:5.Gracious is the LORD, and righteous;-
That is a strange combination which the ungodly cannot understand. It is a riddle never to be read except at the cross: "Gracious is the Lord, and righteous." That is what every troubled conscience wants to know,- how God can be just and yet can pardon sin; but we who have believed in Jesus do know that, and it is our joy to say, "Gracious is the Lord, and righteous;"-
Psalms 116:5. Yea, our God is merciful.
I always feel inclined to mispronounce that word, or to divide it into two, and read it, "Our God is mercy full;" for so he is, he is brimming over with mercy.
