Words Of Hope Thursday, October 21 - a podcast by Cathedral of Hope UCC

The devotion for today, Thursday, October 21, 2021 was written by Dr. Pat Saxon and is narrated by Michael Benham.

Today’s Words of Inspiration come from Richard Foster:
[The Hebrew word] hesed holds before us the great theme of compassion. It is a word so laden with meaning that translators struggle to find an English equivalent, often rendering it “loving kindness” or “steadfast love.” It is a word most frequently used in reference to God’s unwavering compassion for [God’s] people. God’s wonderful hesed love is “from everlasting to everlasting,” declared the Psalmist (Psalm 103:17). It is a “steadfast love” that “endures forever” (Psalm 106:1).
But the great challenge for us is that this covenant love, this durable mercy that is so central to the character of God, is to be reflected in us as well.
