My heart is steadfast, O God, my heart is steadfast;
    I will sing and make melody.
    Awake, my soul!
Awake, O harp and lyre!
    I will awake the dawn.
I will give thanks to you, O Lord, among the peoples,
    and I will sing praises to you among the nations.
For your steadfast love is higher than the heavens,
    and your faithfulness reaches to the clouds. – Psalm 108:1-4

Give thanks to God, for another week as come to a close, and we are again blessed to be God’s people.  God has seen us through the ups and the downs of this week. God continued to be steadfast in divine love, and God remains by our side.

The psalm of praise reminds our hearts of the steadfast love of God that is eternal and reaches higher, and further than we could ever imagine.  God’s grace is made manifest in the goodness of God to provide the rain and the sun, the love of those who surround us, and the prayers of those who continue to uplift us.  We are made better because God does not reject us, but is with us, ever present in our times of need, as we remember and give thanks.

Today, let us simply give thank, rejoice, sing, and praise God for God’s steadfast love for us. Amen.

Grace & Peace,
Sam
