Our Lord is merciful (Psalm6)

O Lord, rebuke me not in your anger, nor discipline me in your wrath.
Be gracious to me, O Lord, for I am languishing; heal me,

O Lord, for my bones are troubled. My soul also is greatly troubled.
But you, O Lord—how long?

Turn, O Lord, deliver my life; save me for the sake of your steadfast love.
For in death there is no remembrance of you; in Sheol who will give you praise?

The Lord has heard my plea; the Lord accepts my prayer.
All my enemies shall be ashamed and greatly troubled; they shall turn back and be put to shame in a moment.

 

 

Be merciful towards me my Lord and King.

David teaches us that mercy is available for us at the feet of our Father.

Our Lord took the wrath of the Father on our behalf, His mercy towards us is unmatched.

Our Father and Lord on our behalf fights and protects us. Our enemy may not be physical as David but  just like him our refuge is in our Lord and King.
