Psalm 106

We forget!

Psalm 106:6-7
Both we and our fathers have sinned; we have gone astray and have acted wickedly. Our fathers in Egypt did not grasp [the significance of] Your wonderful works or remember Your many acts of faithful love; instead, they rebelled by the sea—the Red Sea.
19-21

God's Mercy
Psalm 106:40-45
Therefore the Lord’s anger burned against His people, and He abhorred His own inheritance. He handed them over to the nations; those who hated them ruled them. Their enemies oppressed them, and they were subdued under their power. He rescued them many times, but they continued to rebel deliberately and were beaten down by their sin. When He heard their cry, He took note of their distress, remembered His covenant with them, and relented according to the abundance of His faithful love.

God relented... according to the abundance of His faithful love!!!!!!
Praise God!
