Friday Thought -- November 30, 2012


Good Morning Friends,

“Give thanks to the LORD, for he is good.  His love endures forever.
Give thanks to the God of gods.  His love endures forever.
Give thanks to the Lord of lords:  His love endures forever.”
(Psalm 136:1-3)

The verses above are the three opening verses of Psalm 136.  Can you catch from them what thought the Psalmist might want to impress upon us?

If you said, “His love endures forever,” you figured it out.  It wasn’t too hard.  It would have been easier if I had inserted all 26 verses of the psalm because every one of them concludes with that same phrase.

It’s like he doesn’t trust us to get the idea or perhaps that he knows how forgetful we are and how much we need that thought driven home.

God loves you, He always will!

If there is one thing the Bible repeats over and over and emphasizes in many different ways it is that thought.  I’d say that it is the very core truth of the Bible.  And it is the very truth we forget so easily.

God loves you.  He always has.  He always will!

His, by Grace,

Steve
