Do Not Forget All His Benefits
Bless the LORD, O my soul, and all
that is within me, bless his holy name. Bless the LORD, O my soul, and do not
forget all his benefits – who forgives all your
iniquity, who heals all your diseases, who redeems your life from the Pit, who
crowns you with steadfast love and mercy, who satisfies you with good as long
as you live so that your youth is renewed like the eagle’s.
Some days we awaken with aching joints
and dull spirits and wonder how we can shake off our lethargy and make it
through the day. Try something different. Like David, give thanks to God. Use
your mind and memory to rekindle thankfulness for everything God has done for
you, and continues to do for you. Thank God for His forgiveness. Thank Him for
healing your diseases. Thank Him for His love and care. Thank Him for redeeming
your life from destruction. Thank Him for giving you not what you want, but
what you need. Thank Him for the strength and vigor that He gives to you. Thank
Him for allowing your spirit to rise up and soar like an eagle.
Gratitude is
the memory of a glad heart.
