For He Is Good

Give thanks to the Lord, for he is good; his love endures forever. Who can proclaim the mighty acts of the Lord or fully declare his praise? (Psalm 106:1-2, NIV 1984).

My Musings – If we say we can “fully declare his praise,” then “surely [we speak] of things [we do] not understand, things too wonderful for [us] to know.” (Job 42:3, NIV 1984). If we even had half a notion, we would realize there is no way we could adequately “ascribe to the Lord glory and strength. Ascribe to the Lord the glory due his name.” (Psalm 96:7-8, NIV 1984).

So, why should He notice us? Why should He even give us a second thought? Why would He send His Son to die for our sins? Because “He is good; His love endures forever.” And so shall we endure forever, if we proclaim the name of His Son, Jesus Christ, “the radiance of God’s glory and the exact representation of his being.” (Hebrews 1:3, NIV 1984).

My Advice – Nevertheless, though it be wholly inadequate, “give thanks to the Lord…proclaim [His] mighty acts…declare His praise.”

I was raised in a Christian family and my earliest childhood memories include regular Sunday school and Church attendance as a family. I was taught that our Judeo-Christian values were not just a part of our Sunday routine they should be part of our character and influence all aspects of our lives. I was also taught that as important as these values were they could not save us. We must also be “born again” by accepting Christ.
