(43) Whoever is wise, let him attend to these things; let them consider the steadfast love of the LORD.
This Psalm and the few preceding it remind the reader about all the ways that the Lord has acted in faithfulness toward His people. This verse shows us the value in that. Remember that the fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom. With that understanding it just makes sense that there should be a record of the faithfulness of the Lord. The people had much reason to praise Him and remember His steadfast love. This led to wisdom and encouragement.
When I think about His steadfast love toward me I can think of a litany of things. Just off the top of my head:
- He saved me from my sin and redeemed me
- He regenerated my heart and gave me a desire to live for Him
- He brought Amanda into my life
- He has met my physical needs
- He blessed me with two beautiful children

Do you believe in miracles?
Absolutely! One of the blessings I didn't mention is my freedom from habitual pornography and self-gratification as well as freedom from gluttony and laziness. Whether that is miraculous or not is a matter of semantics, but it was certainly supernatural.
What did you have in mind when you asked this question?
An allusion to the Miracle on Ice? 2/22/80??
If so, YES!!
