Psalm 86:5–"For You, O Lord, are good and forgiving, abounding in steadfast love to all who call upon You."
There is a stigma attached to Christianity that would caricature the teaching of Scripture. This misconception reduce the whole of Christian theology to its conception of sin, rendering the human as nothing more than hopeless and helpless under the weight of sin. And while this is a true sentiment that lies at the very heart of the Christian message, it wholeheartedly neglects the weightier portion of the gospel, it ignores the Good News.
This verse represents the breadth of the good news, that God is forgiving and loving to those who call upon His name in humility and faith. What an amazing truth to behold! Let us never neglect it.
