—Psalm 36:5-9
by: Leota Stevens.
The writer of these verses uses sweeping narrative in his attempt to define the grandeur and majesty of God’s interaction with the children of men. The foundation for relationship with God is laid out here in terms that we can appreciate and understand; God is merciful, faithful, righteous, and wise. His loving-kindness allows us to be abundantly satisfied in fellowship with him. As we learn to appreciate his character and deepen our trust in him, our way is enlightened and we are enabled to freely drink from the river of God’s own pleasure.
