Psalms 145:8-9 The Message (MSG)
GOD is all mercy and grace— not quick to anger, is rich in love. GOD is good to one and all; everything he does is soaked through with grace.
Psalms 145:14-21 The Message (MSG)
GOD gives a hand to those down on their luck, gives a fresh start to those ready to quit. All eyes are on you, expectant; you give them their meals on time. Generous to a fault, you lavish your favor on all creatures. Everything GOD does is right— the trademark on all his works is love. GOD’s there, listening for all who pray, for all who pray and mean it. He does what’s best for those who fear him— hears them call out, and saves them. GOD sticks by all who love him, but it’s all over for those who don’t. My mouth is filled with GOD’s praise. Let everything living bless him, bless his holy name from now to eternity!
