Someone to Praise and Something to Sing About

'O my soul, come, praise the Eternal with all that is in me—body, emotions, mind, and will—every part of who I am—praise His holy name.

O my soul, come, praise the Eternal; sing a song from a grateful heart; sing and never forget all the good He has done.

Despite all your many offenses, He forgives and releases you. More than any doctor, He heals your diseases.

He reaches deep into the pit to deliver you from death. He crowns you with unfailing love and compassion like a king.

When your soul is famished and withering, He fills you with good and beautiful things, satisfying you as long as you live. He makes you strong like an eagle, restoring your youth.

When people are crushed, wronged, enslaved, raped, murdered, the Eternal is just; He makes the wrongs right. Psalm 103:1-6 (VOICE) 

Even the sin of forgetfulness is forgiven. My God is a merciful God. He loves me. Do not forget this:

      1. He forgives me of all of my sins,
      2. He heals me of all my diseases,
      3. He redeems me and saves me,
      4. He crowns me with love and mercy,
      5. He satisfies me and renews my youth and strength, and
      6. He works righteousness and gives justice to all.


Dear Heavenly Father. Because of Your merciful nature, God, You are the God of Grace and You are the Lord of Love. Because of these six truths, You always give me someone too praise and something to sing about. When I stumble in sin You are right there, ready to restore me to myself in You and I find myself in Your favor again and again and always, even unto eternity. You are perfect in all of Your ways and You saved my life and now my soul will praise You as I think on these things and consider all that You have done for me. And, as if these were not enough, You are still doing great and amazing things for me that bring beauty into my life and renews my strength. You bless me every day and in so many ways and I am grateful. I take my delight in You. It is my duty and a privilege to praise You, Father, Son and Holy Spirit. Thank you Lord. In Jesus' name. Amen.
