PSALM 63:3

God desires what is best for us. Scripture describes Him as patient toward mankind because He wants “all to come to repentance” (2 Peter 3:9). Many believers can testify that our gracious Father gave them multiple chances before they trusted in His Son.

If you think that the Lord takes second chances lightly, read today’s passage—it is a look at humanity through divine eyes. On our own, no matter how much we try to be good, we will fall short. Thankfully, God’s grace is immeasurably greater than our failings (Romans 5:20).

Of course, the heavenly Father is a righteous judge who cannot ignore transgressions. If He did, He would not be the holy and just deity described in the Scriptures. God considers  grace an action word. As a result, He implemented a plan for each person on earth: Whoever believes in Jesus Christ as Savior is forgiven. We are justified by faith and at peace with God (Romans 5:1). Our rebellion against Him is over. In fact, from the Father’s perspective, His children look as if they have never done anything wrong.

Jesus is our second chance. Apart from Him, there is no salvation, no justification, and no grace. Psalm 63:3 says, “Your lovingkindness is better than life, my lips will praise You.” Take a moment today to thank the Lord for this amazing gift.
