DAY TEN

“ (He) redeems your life from the pit

and crowns you with love and compassion,

who satisfies your desires with good things

so that your youth is renewed like the eagles.”

Psalm 103:4,5

COMMENT

When you read through these verses, you almost get the feeling that God just can’t do enough for you.  Look at the words David uses – and remember that he is speaking from a lifetime of walking with God.  “He crowns you with love and compassion.  He satisfies your desires with good things…”  Perhaps you may say, “But God hasn’t done that for me.”  I wonder if you don’t feel like that because you haven’t taken the time to thank God for the many good things that happen to you every day.  If you stop to reflect on God’s goodness to you, you will find more and more things that happen each day that are the evidence of God’s love showered on you.

PRAISE AND THANKSGIVING

Stop a moment today and thank God in detail for everything that is proof of His great love for you.  What are your desires that He has satisfied in this week?  Pour out your heart to Him in grateful thanks and you will find much more to thank Him for than you even realised.
