1 Bless the Lord, O my soul,
and all that is within me,
bless his holy name!
2 Bless the Lord, O my soul,
and forget not all his benefits....
As you read through this Psalm think about all the benefits you've received from the Lord.
Psalm 103
ReplyDelete3 He is the one who forgives all your sins,
the one who heals all your diseases,
4 the one who rescues your life from the pit,
the one who crowns you with mercy and compassion,
5 the one who fills your life with blessings
so that you become young again like an eagle.
8 The Lord is compassionate, merciful, patient, and always ready to forgive.
10 He has not treated us as we deserve for our sins or paid us back for our wrongs.
12 As far as the east is from the west—
that is how far he has removed our rebellious acts from himself.
17 But from everlasting to everlasting, the Lord’s mercy is on those who fear him. His righteousness belongs to their children and grandchildren,
18 to those who are faithful to his promise,
to those who remember to follow his guiding principles.
19 The Lord has set his throne in heaven.
His kingdom rules everything.
20 Praise the Lord, all his angels,
you mighty beings who carry out his orders
and are ready to obey his spoken orders.
21 Praise the Lord, all his armies,
his servants who carry out his will.
22 Praise the Lord, all his creatures
in all the places of his empire.
Praise the Lord, my soul!
