Love the way Michael helps us understand the all-encompassing love of God towards His people along with His justice. "Hesed" (God's covenant love) means so much that other words orbit around it."Truth, mercy, covenant, justice, faithfulness, goodness, favor, righteousness. " God defines Himself as "compassionate" and as "Kind" in the Old Testament-Exodus 34. In the New Testament, Jesus surprises us by being a "slave." He is compassionate...but also He is just. He alone forgives all of our sin but we do not escape the consequences of our sin.
Great message-basically a quick summary of Michael Card's book "Inexpressible," which is about hesed. So why is it titled "Lament"? He has written other books on lament, but that's not what this message is about.
My wife and I have listened to Michael Card's music for 40 years.
This made me tear up. So much wow. All this new understanding!

Michael Card's voice sounds nearly like fellow artists Steve Camp & Steven Curtis Chapman.
But God made only one Micheal Card. I enjoy his duets with John Micheal Talbot.
