The Kindness of God
You didn't earn your seat at God's table. Covenant put you there.
Grace held the door open. And mercy said, "Stay as long as you like." That is the transforming power of Jesus.

Reflecting on the kindness of God, I’ve come to appreciate the profound truth that our place with Him is not earned but graciously given through covenant and mercy. This understanding reshaped my faith journey, reminding me that grace holds the door open even when I feel unworthy. From personal experience, embracing God’s kindness means acknowledging that His love is steadfast despite my shortcomings. It’s comforting to realize that, like being seated at a table of royalty, I am honored simply because of His covenant with us, not because of any merit of my own. The concept that mercy says, “Stay as long as you like,” invites me into a continuous relationship without fear of rejection. Such kindness challenges me to extend the same grace to others, fostering compassion in daily life. Additionally, scripture and teachings, like those shared in devotionals such as the Rhapsody of Realities, deepen this understanding by illustrating how God lifts us from nothingness to a place of honor. This transformative power encourages me to live with gratitude and humility. If you’re searching for peace or struggling with feelings of unworthiness, reflect on God’s covenant kindness. It’s a powerful reminder that no achievement or failure can bar you from His love and presence—His kindness invites us all to the table freely and forever.
