Read Think Pray: Read Psalm 107:1-3, 17-22

Monday

“Give thanks to the Lord,

because he is good;

his love is eternal!”

² Repeat these words in praise to the Lord,

all you whom he has saved.

He has rescued you from your enemies ³and has brought you back from foreign countries,

from east and west, from north and south.ⁿ

Some were fools, suffering because of their sins

and because of their evil;

¹⁸ they couldn’t stand the sight of food

and were close to death.

¹⁹ Then in their trouble they called to the Lord,

and he saved them from their distress.

²⁰ He healed them with his command

and saved them from the grave.

²¹ They must thank the Lord for his constant love,

for the wonderful things he did for them.

²² They must thank him with sacrifices,

and with songs of joy must tell all that he has done.

"Some were fools, suffering because of their sins and because of their evil."

- Verse 17

Its amazing how foolish we can be; holding on to what we should let go of...

In my trouble I call to you - save me and heal me I pray.
