PSALM 145 THE LORD PRESERVES ALL WHO LOVE HIM
14 The LORD upholds all who are falling
and raises up all who are bowed down.
15 The eyes of all look to you,
and you give them their food in due season.
16 You open your hand;
you satisfy the desire of every living thing.
17 The LORD is righteous in all his ways
and kind in all his works.
18 The LORD is near to all who call on him,
to all who call on him in truth.
19 He fulfills the desire of those who fear him;
he also hears their cry and saves them.
20 The LORD preserves all who love him,
but all the wicked he will destroy.
21 My mouth will speak the praise of the LORD,
and let all flesh bless his holy name forever and ever. – Psalm 145:14-21

A RIGHTEOUS AND KIND GOD by ILMA
Our Lord God is full of empathy and compassion
He lifts up the hearts of those who are discouraged
He cares for every living thing he has created
He provides for their nourishment and all their needs
The Lord is righteous in everything he does and in all his ways
He is full of kindness and mercy and wants us all to be saved
But he especially preserves all those who love him
And because he is just, he needs to destroy evil
He fulfills the desires of those who obey and fear him
He listens to all their pleas and grant them mercy
The Lord is near to all those who call on him in truth
He protects and preserves those who are faithful.________________________________________
