Sunday's Praise

Amazing how God's word even when written many years ago, how it penetrates our hearts and applies to what we are going through today.

Psalm 66:

8 Let the whole world bless our God
      and loudly sing his praises.
 9 Our lives are in his hands,
      and he keeps our feet from stumbling.
 10 You have tested us, O God;
      you have purified us like silver.
 11 You captured us in your net
      and laid the burden of slavery on our backs.
 12 Then you put a leader over us.
      We went through fire and flood,
      but you brought us to a place of great abundance.

16 Come and listen, all you who fear God,
      and I will tell you what he did for me.
 17 For I cried out to him for help,
      praising him as I spoke.
 18 If I had not confessed the sin in my heart,
      the Lord would not have listened.
 19 But God did listen!
      He paid attention to my prayer.
 20 Praise God, who did not ignore my prayer
      or withdraw his unfailing love from me.

God is good!

Blessings this Palm Sunday,

Ps. I read this on my phone right before church! Loved, loved it. It made me think of Him, the cross, and all He's done.

Hello again, Mari. Thank you for sharing this beautiful Psalm.
The link on Spiritual Sundays led to last week's post. I just fixed it so it will lead to this one.
Blessings for a wonderful week.
