11/6/13- Psalm 107

Oh give thanks to the Lord, for he is good,
    for his steadfast love endures forever!
2 Let the redeemed of the Lord say so,
    whom he has redeemed from trouble (Psalm 107) 

Thoughts: When God delivers us, we should give thanks and part of that thanking of God is to spread the word to others.  If God has helped you, let others know.  This is the theme of all of Psalm 107.
    In this Psalm some wandered in a hopeless desert; some were in dark prisons; some rebelled against God; some were in danger on the sea; some were in danger during time of war.  In their trouble and humility they called out to God who saved them.  When the circumstances of life go up and down- God has steadfast love that never fails.
     If God has helped us, and we know it, then let us not be mute to God or neighbor.  Let us tell the other beggars where to get the bread.  Let us give thanks to God. Tell it out- Let others hear our thanks.  

Prayer: Thank you God for the many times you have delivered me and those whom I love.
