THE STORY OF JESUS: Psalm 107
“Give thanks to the Lord… Let the redeemed of the Lord tell their story…” (Psalm 107:2)
We’re urged to share our God stories, how God helped, rescued or restored us.
God’s grace isn’t just for ministers or theologians, it is part of everyday life.
How has God helped, rescued, saved or restored you?
For me it is God’s forgiveness, patience and kindness despite my slowness.
I have not had traumatic life experiences, mine has been a slow, easy journey.
But that slow, easy journey has made me slow to learn, and easy to settle.
I don’t envy people’s dramatic testimonies, but I do envy their deep faith and joy.
My story is still my story, and in the end it will be all about God’s grace.
I still have issues in my life I need to deal with, but God gives me hope.
For me the greatest bless is how the Lord walks with me through these issues.
Through journaling and prayer, He regularly encourages or warns me.
Despite my weaknesses and failures, He sticks with me and draws me onward.
He assures me that He began my journey, He will see it through to completion.
This is why I thank the Lord: He really is good, and His love does last forever!
What do you sense the Lord saying to you?
PRAYER
Lord, thank You for Your faithful love throughout my journey. My story is not dramatic, but it is real, and it is mine. Remind me to tell my story too!
At all times I need to serve the living God.
He helped His people in days past
and He continues to help His people today.
Come and see what the Lord has done for me.
I need to share of His faithfulness
to all who have ears to hear.
Wise men still seek Him today
and think/ponder of what He has done for His people
for me.
I need to share His story to all those around me
the loving deeds of the Lord.
Praise Him. Praise Him.
Thank You Lord for being the Lord of my life
for it is in You that I really Live.
1 Oh, praise the Lord, all ye nations!
Praise Him, all ye people!
For His merciful kindness is great toward us,
And the truth of the Lord endureth forever;
Praise ye the Lord!
Refrain:
Praise Him, praise Him!
Praise ye the Lord!
Praise Him, praise Him!
Praise ye the Lord!
2 Oh, praise the Lord, all ye nations!
Praise Him for His goodness;
For He saveth His people from all their sins,
And preserveth the souls of all who will trust Him;
Praise ye the Lord!
