The Great Love of the Lord

Yesterday I was reading the Psalms and was so reminded of God's great love for us. Today, I'm going to a baby shower of a friend who is adopting two sweet girls from Ethiopia and was looking through Psalm 107 for an appropriate verse. There were several to choose from and, again, I'm reminded of how much God cares for those in need.

Give thanks to the LORD, for he is good; his love endures forever. Let the redeemed of the LORD say this- ...those he gathered from the lands, from east and west, from north and south...
But he lifted the needy out of their affliction and increased their families like flocks
. The upright see and rejoice, but all the wicked shut their mouths. Whoever is wise, let him heed these things and
consider the great love of the LORD. Psalm 107:1-3, 41-43

What a great God we serve! I love that God cares about the needy.
