Psalm 145

Not my poetry, for a change. 🙂  I’ve italicized a couple of the verses that are particularly meaningful to me.

Psalm 145:8-9, 13b-18

The Lord is gracious and compassionate,
     slow to anger and rich in love.

The Lord is good to all;
     he has compassion on all he has made.
…
(13b) The Lord is trustworthy in all he promises,
             and faithful in all he does.

The Lord upholds all who fall,
     and lifts up all who are bowed down.

The eyes of all look to you,
     and you give them their food at the proper time.

You open your hand
     and satisfy the desires of every living thing. 

The Lord is righteous in all his ways
     and faithful in all he does.

The Lord is near to all who call on him,
     to all who call on him in truth.
