Praise the Lord.
Give thanks to the Lord, for he is good;
his love endures forever.
~Psalm 106:1~

~Psalm 106:1~
If you have not read Psalm 106 recently, I strongly recommend that you go do that now! This psalm recounts Israel's recurring rebellion and apostasy with respect to God's word and ways. We are encouraged to confess our sins and unfaithfulness and reminded to pray that God will once again visit his repentant people with full salvation and blessings. God's people should individually and collectively confess their shortcomings before the Lord. When we recognize our spiritual failure and then repent, real revival and reformation can take place!
I read this on Wednesday, and the first verse struck me. Of course, Thanksgiving was on Thursday, and I'd had a little bit of a tough week. My daughter was sick with the tummy flu on Monday night, so we were all up! I'd been praying for strength, and good thing. My husband and I were able to make it through the vomit explosions without heaving, and we both made it through Tuesday completely unscathed, even though we were tired.
So, it was encouraging to me on Wednesday, trying to get in the thankful spirit, to open right on up to Psalm 106:1! We have to much to be thankful for! Thank you Lord!

I was immediately reminded of one of my favorite worship songs.
Forever
Chris Tomlin
Give thanks to the Lord our God and King;
His love endures forever
For He is good; He is a above all things,
His love endures forever.
Sing praise, sing praise.
With a mighty hand and outstretched arm,
His love endures forever.
For the life that’s been reborn,
His love endures forever.
Sing praise, sing praise, sing praise, sing praise.
Forever, God is faithful, forever God is strong.
Forever God is with us, forever, forever.
From the rising to the setting sun;
His love endures forever
And by the grace of God we will carry on;
His love endures forever
Sing praise, sing praise, sing praise, sing praise.

I am so glad to hear you made it through without catching the flu yourself! My son and I had a bad one last month ... lasted for 1 1/2 weeks. Anyway, what an amazing God we serve and I am glad he blessed you with His word right in time for the holiday!
