Sunday Psalms;
Give thanks to the LORD because he is good. God's faithful love lasts forever!
Psalms 136:1 CEB
There's 26 verses in this song, 26 repeats of "God's faithful love lasts forever".
"God's faithful love lasts forever".
And 14 "Give thanks".
The song starts with proclamations about God's character, moves on to how He intervened in the story of his people, rescued them when all hope seemed lost, and ends with how God's goodness benefits everyone.
I'm wondering if we were to write our own song, what is it about God's faithful love that I would write?
"God's faithful love lasts forever".
What is it that I would give thanks for?
What are the things that come up for you?
Perhaps it's spiritual experiences, a sermon that changed things, a word, a verse, a passage of scripture.
Perhaps it's a person, or people who have impacted you, an author, a friend, maybe someone who has passed, maybe someone who has faithfully pointed the way...
Maybe it's a blessing, a healing, a time when God made his presence known in a tough time, when someone reached out, or when you were prompted to reach out to someone else...
Maybe it's the hope that we hold that there is a Bigger Story that we're part of, that "God's faithful love lasts forever", and that one day all will be made new.
What's your "Give Thanks" today?
