Read Psalm 67:1-7
God, be merciful to us and bless us;
look on us with kindness,
2 so that the whole world may know your will;
so that all nations may know your salvation.
3 May the peoples praise you, O God;
may all the peoples praise you!
4 May the nations be glad and sing for joy,
because you judge the peoples with justice
and guide every nation on earth.
5 May the peoples praise you, O God;
may all the peoples praise you!
6 The land has produced its harvest;
God, our God, has blessed us.
7 God has blessed us;
may all people everywhere honor him.

Think
God's will toward us - is kindness. As the Psalmist reflects on this kindness in verse 6 he proclaims... "The land has produced its harvest; God, our God, has blessed us." (Verse 6). We can choose to take all the beauty around us for granted - or recognize every good thing as a blessing from God who is kind.
Pray
Lord help me to see your kindness in the world around me.
