Aim: To have our hearts moved to faithfulness, through God's generosity to us.
The preciousness of God's kindness: it is given to unworthy souls, and it is based on covenant faithfulness.
Exegesis: The dimensions of God's kindness: it more than cancels our debts (v. 23); it generously provides temporal comforts (v. 28); it tenderly binds our hearts to each other (vv. 29-30); it benefits all, but His children particularly (vv. 33-34).
Further application: Pleasing attitudes toward God's kindness: let us be humbly thankful and have great love for God.
Key phrase: v. 23a ''But he said, 'Peace be with you, do not be afraid. Your God and the God of your father has given you treasure in your sacks; I had your money.'''
