The Lord IS Good!

I felt like I should spend some time thinking about Psalm 107 this morning.  It is such a good psalm as it speaks of the Lords repeated mercy, forgiveness,  grace and provision.  Over and over He has heard the cries of His people and rescued them.  Here are some of the verses -

Psalm 107:1-2, 8-9, 15-16, 20-21, 28-32 NIV:

[1] "Give thanks to the Lord, for he is good; his love endures forever.
[2] Let the redeemed of the Lord tell their story---those he redeemed from the hand of the foe,

[8] Let them give thanks to the Lord for his unfailing love and his wonderful deeds for mankind,
[9] for he satisfies the thirsty and fills the hungry with good things.

[15] Let them give thanks to the Lord for his unfailing love and his wonderful deeds for mankind,
[16] for he breaks down gates of bronze and cuts through bars of iron.

[20] He sent out his word and healed them; he rescued them from the grave.
[21] Let them give thanks to the Lord for his unfailing love and his wonderful deeds for mankind.

[28] Then they cried out to the Lord in their trouble, and he brought them out of their distress.
[29] He stilled the storm to a whisper; the waves of the sea were hushed.
[30] They were glad when it grew calm, and he guided them to their desired haven.

[31] Let them give thanks to the Lord for his unfailing love and his wonderful deeds for mankind.
[32] Let them exalt him in the assembly of the people and praise him in the council of the elders."

The Lord is so good to us, so good to all who cry out to Him.  He always provides an answer and provides for us, for we are His children.  He has redeemed us from whatever situation we have found ourselves in, ministering grace and compassion all around him.  Neither hunger, thirst, chains, gates and bars, sickness, storms, nor the wrong thinking of man is sufficient to stop the Lord from intervening.

Let us give thanks for His amazing love and blessing.  He has personally taken an interest in each of our lives, and blessed us abundantly.  His blood was shed for each of us.  What other god has ever done such a thing?

Thank You Jesus!
