In the Lord I Take Refuge: 31 Days in the Psalmsნიმუში

This short psalm calls for the nations (v. 1) to rejoice in God’s love for Israel (v. 2). How can that be? The psalmist knows that God’s love is pledged to Israel for the sake of the whole world. God called Abraham and his descendants to be a channel, not a dam; to pass on, not gobble up, God’s grace and mercy (Gen. 12:2–3; Ex. 19:5–6; 1 Kings 8:41–43). And the true and final descendant of Abraham, Jesus Christ, broke open God’s grace for all the world once and for all (Gal. 3:7–9, 16).
Are you a follower of Jesus Christ? Enjoy God’s grace. But pass it on. To hoard God’s grace is to demonstrate you do not yourself understand it. If grace is as promised, it is free—indiscriminately open to all. Who in your life needs to hear of this grace? If grace is truly gracious, then you are permanently forgiven, liberated, and rinsed clean. Let your delight in this freedom bubble over into telling others what they might enjoy.
