What the Lord Has NOT Done

Yesterday morning I heard the following verse on a local radio station:
"He does not treat us as our sins deserve
or repay us according to our iniquities." Psalm 103:10

And I was struck at how thankful I am at what the Lord has NOT done . . .

He has not treated us as our sins deserve

He does not repay us according to our inequities

He has not allowed us to be moved out from under the umbrella of His unfailing love

He has not given up on us

He has not allowed the enemy to consume us

He has not let the waters sweep over us or the fires set us ablaze

He has not left us alone

He will not break us even when we are bruised reeds

He will not snuff us out even when we are just smoldering wicks


And on and on . . .Praise the Lord for what He has done. And NOT done.
