Read Psalms 103:13,14  Our verses today show us the kindness and love of God.  God knows that we are not as smart as He is.  He doesn't expect a lot out of us.  But He does expect us to love Him right back and to obey Him.  David uses a word picture here to show us with words what our heavenly Father is like.  David says in verse 13 that just like earthly fathers love and take care of their children, God loves and takes care of us.  As fathers, we don't expect our children to pay the house payment every month.  We don't expect our children to pay the water bill and the electric bill.  We don't expect our children to pay for the gas when we stop our car at the gas station.  But we do expect our children to obey us and to do what we tell them to do.  As fathers we only what what is best for our children, so we only have good rules to follow in our house.  God is our heavenly Father, and He knows us.  He knows that we are just humans.  We don't understand everything that He does - and we never will.  He knows that He created us just like He created Adam and Eve.  We need to remember that God made us, He owns us, and He wants what is best for us.  God knows what is best for us and we should obey Him!  We need to thank our heavenly Father for taking care of us every day!
