Psalm 103:1-5

 Bless (affectionately, gratefully praise) the Lord, O my soul; and all that is [deepest] within me, bless His holy name! Bless (affectionately, gratefully praise) the Lord, O my soul, and forget not [one of] all His benefits— Who forgives [every one of] all your iniquities, Who heals [each one of] all your diseases, Who redeems your life from the pit and corruption, Who beautifies, dignifies, and crowns you with loving-kindness and tender mercy; Who satisfies your mouth [your necessity and desire at your personal age and situation] with good so that your youth, renewed, is like the eagle’s [strong, overcoming, soaring]!

 

Being thankful and full of praise even in the tough times brings our hearts to a place of trust and peace.  He is our provider, our healer, our deliverer and the one who works all things together for good.  Set aside some time to turn your eyes upon Jesus today.  Look full in His wonderful face and remember that He is a good and faithful friend.  He is our hope and the lover of our soul!
