Daily Light on the Daily Path
Evening August 1
The Lord is compassionate and merciful.
As a father shows compassion to his children, so the Lord shows compassion to those who fear him.—The Lord is gracious and merciful.… He remembers his covenant forever.
He who keeps you will not slumber. Behold, he who keeps Israel will neither slumber nor sleep.—Like an eagle that stirs up its nest, that flutters over its young, spreading out its wings, catching them, bearing them on its pinions, the Lord alone guided him, no foreign god was with him.
His mercies never come to an end; they are new every morning; great is your faithfulness.—[Jesus] went ashore he saw a great crowd, and he had compassion on them and healed their sick.—Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever.
“Even the hairs of your head are all numbered.… Are not two sparrows sold for a penny? And not one of them will fall to the ground apart from your Father.… Fear not, therefore.”James 5:11; Ps. 103:13; Ps. 111:4, 5; Ps. 121:3, 4; Deut. 32:11, 12; Lam. 3:22, 23; Matt. 14:14; Heb. 13:8; Matt. 10:30, 29, 31
