Our God is truly a compassionate God. Just like the nation of Israel, we have turned away to follow our own path. In our lives, God rarely delivers us into the hands of a physical enemy as He did in the times of the Israelites. Yet there are so many times we need deliverance by His grace when we have run after the gods of distraction and self indulgence. Thanks be to God that He has chosen us, hears our prayers, maintains our cause, forgives our sins and makes us objects of His compassion.
