“Give Thanks to the LORD, for HE is GOOD. His LOVE endures FOREVER. Give thanks to the God of Gods. His LOVE endures FOREVER. Give thanks to the LORD of lords: His LOVE endures FOREVER. To HIM who alone does great WONDERS. His LOVE endures FOREVER…” Psalm 136
Meditation:
The Bible describes in Psalm 136, all the wonders that God had done for the Israelites from creation through the deliverance from Egypt and into the land promised to them, providing them with all that they needed…
I challenge you to write a psalm listing all the things that God has done for you using the same format!
Many years ago, I did this myself and it has been a wonderful reminder, especially in tough times, of all that God had done for me. Living with Gratitude, brings so much inner Joy, and Peace…
"I Give thanks to the Lord for He is good; his mercy endures forever; he has given me Salvation and Eternal Spiritual Life, his mercy endures forever; he hears me when I call to him, his mercy endures forever; when I was in trouble, he rescued me, his mercy endures forever..."
I listed all the gifts he has given me and continues to give me, and I thanked him every day for all the times that I was in pain, and He healed me, and the times when I needed to be rescued. It is a REMINDER of GOD’s LOVE, MERCY, GRACE and GOODNESS.
I’m sure if you take up my challenge and compose your own psalm, you will discover times that you might have forgotten about when God was there. Sometimes we don’t recognize God in the littlest things, and in those times when he is truly saving us. It’s so important to look for God each and every day or we might miss an opportunity to feel his presence.
Prayer (Bernice and me):
Thank you, Lord for all the blessings, and gifts you have given us and continue to give us. We know that you are always with us. Help us always to walk in your ways with Gratitude, Joy and Peace and continue sharing our personal testimony every single day. In Jesus name we Pray, Amen!
