At Light of Salvation Church we reflected on the powerful truth found in Psalm 103:4:
"God who redeemeth thy life from destruction; who crowneth thee with lovingkindness and tender mercies."
David reminds us that God not only redeemed us from destruction, but He also crowned us. He placed something on our lives that should be visible to everyone around us.
This crown is not made of gold or precious stones. It is a crown of lovingkindness and tender mercies. The Hebrew word for lovingkindness is hesed-God's covenant love, steadfast love, faithful love, and the kind of love that doesn't let go.
That's why every now and then, you need to adjust your crown.
Not because it has fallen off but because life has a way of causing us to forget what we're wearing.
Sometimes: Hurt can cover it, disappointment can hide it, frustration can tilt it and offense can cause us to stop reflecting it.
You must adjust your crown- Get your fire back, get your hope up and LIVE! Your crown matters because it tells the world whose you are; the Kings kid.
When people meet you, they should notice something different about you. They should see mercy before judgment. They should see the evidence of God's covenant love resting upon your life.
What a good Father we serve. When we were at our lowest, He didn't walk away. When we could have lost our minds, He kept us. When we could have given up, He strengthened us.
When we should have been destroyed, He redeemed us. And because He is a good Father, He didn't leave us empty-handed-He placed a crown upon our lives.
Every time you look back over your life, you ought to see the fingerprints of a faithful Father who protected you, preserved you, carried you, and loved you through every season.
As you walk into this week, don't carry yourself like someone defeated or abandoned.
Walk like someone who has been redeemed from destruction and crowned by the King of Kings.
💥 To all the Fathers — adjust your crown you’re doing a great job! 💥
Happy Father’s Day
