Psalm 136

I read Psalm 136 this morning; its recounting of the many great deeds of a mighty God, each verse ending with for His mercy and loving-kindness endure forever. What a wonderful litany of the strong hand of a loving Father, a reminder of His care and faithfulness. I want to document His great deeds and faithfulness in my life too...

Remember, oh my soul, how great has been His faithfulness to you, for His mercy and loving-kindness endure forever;

He is the God of the universe, creator of heaven and earth yet has come down to dwell among us, for His mercy and loving-kindness endure forever;

He has chosen to abide with me forever and will never leave me or forsake me, for His mercy and loving-kindness endure forever;

He has given me new life through the finished work of the cross, He has regenerated my spirit and communes with me every moment of every day, for His mercy and loving-kindness endure forever;

He has wrought mighty miracles in my heart, strengthening me to stand when I felt I was going to die and He is teaching me to know and choose truth no matter what the cost, for His mercy and loving-kindness endure forever;

He is working miracles in my family, some visible and others still hidden, for His mercy and loving-kindness endure forever;

I give thanks for my salvation, for this walk into maturity, for miracles great and small both in me and in my family - and mostly for His mercy and loving-kindness that endure forever!
