The Stunning Kindness of our Great God
August 18, 2014
Why should I doubt my Master's love
When He has saved me through His blood;
The riches of salvation given,
Withholding nothing, even heaven?
""Come take of my forgiveness now,""
The Kind One said and humbly bowed
Beneath the cross that brought Him shame
So I could know His matchless Name.
And then, He came to live within,
Erasing and forgiving sin;
And making me His wealthy heir
So all He has I now can share.
Forgive me, Lord, for senseless thoughts
That question you, when you have brought
Me every kindness I have known;
I worship now here before Your throne!

Parents increasingly compromise with their children and bow to the "everybody-is-doing-it" complaints. We will never be perfect as parents, but if we sow moral compromise, we will often reap moral confusion.
