Poem: Thank You, Lord | Thank you lord, Lord, Love scriptures

“O give thanks unto the LORD; for he is good: for his mercy endureth for ever.” -Psalm 136:1,26

This verse from Psalm 136 is a beautiful reminder of the boundless mercy and enduring goodness of the Lord. It calls us to offer our thanks, not just in moments of joy and prosperity, but continually, recognizing the steadfast love that God extends to us in every circumstance.

Reflective Questions:

  • How often do we pause to thank the Lord for His endless mercy?

  • In what ways have we experienced God’s goodness in our lives recently?

  • How can we incorporate gratitude into our daily routines, acknowledging God’s perpetual compassion?

Supportive Scriptures:

  • Lamentations 3:22-23: “It is of the LORD’s mercies that we are not consumed, because his compassions fail not. They are new every morning: great is thy faithfulness.”

  • Psalm 100:5: “For the LORD is good; his mercy is everlasting; and his truth endureth to all generations.”

  • James 1:17: “Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and cometh down from the Father of lights, with whom is no variableness, neither shadow of turning.”

The Lord’s Mercy and Endurance:

God’s mercy is a testament to His patience and compassion towards His children. Despite our shortcomings and failures, His mercy remains steadfast. In biblical times, the Israelites experienced God’s mercy repeatedly, even when they turned away from Him. His patience with them was a sign of His enduring love and commitment. Today, we too experience this enduring mercy in our lives. Each day we wake up, each opportunity for redemption, and each instance of grace is a reflection of God’s unwavering mercy. His compassion is not fleeting or conditional but an eternal truth that we can depend on.

Moral Takeaways:

  • Gratitude: Cultivating a heart of thankfulness helps us stay grounded in the knowledge of God’s goodness.

  • Faith: Trusting in God’s enduring mercy allows us to face life’s challenges with hope.

  • Reflection: Regularly reflecting on our experiences of God’s mercy can deepen our relationship with Him.

Biblical Times vs. Today:

In biblical times, the psalmist’s call to give thanks was a communal act, a declaration of God’s deeds among His people. Today, while our contexts have changed, the essence of gratitude remains the same. Whether through personal prayer, community worship, or acts of kindness, expressing gratitude for God’s mercy continues to be a vital practice.

Scripture to Ponder for the Day:

Micah 7:18: “Who is a God like unto thee, that pardoneth iniquity, and passeth by the transgression of the remnant of his heritage? he retaineth not his anger for ever, because he delighteth in mercy.”

Prayer:

Heavenly Father, we give thanks to You for Your unfailing goodness and enduring mercy. In moments of joy and in times of struggle, Your love remains constant. Help us to cultivate hearts of gratitude, always mindful of Your blessings. May Your patience and compassion guide us in our journey, and may we reflect Your love in our interactions with others. Bless us, Lord, and keep us ever close to Your heart. In Jesus’ name, we pray. Amen.

Blessing for the Readers:

May the unending mercy and compassion of the Lord fill your hearts with peace and gratitude. May you find strength in His patience and joy in His goodness, and may His everlasting love guide you through every season of life.

God Bless You All~

“If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask God, who gives generously to all without reproach, and it will be given him.” James 1:5 (ESV)

James 1:5 is a profound reminder of God’s boundless generosity and His desire to guide us. This verse reassures us that wisdom is not something we have to attain on our own. It is a gift from
God, readily available to anyone who seeks it with a sincere heart. 

The beauty of this promise lies in its simplicity and inclusiveness—anyone can ask, and God will give generously, without holding our past mistakes or
shortcomings against us.

In our daily lives, we often face situations that leave us feeling uncertain and in need of guidance In those moments, this verse encourages us to turn to God, the source of all wisdom. It’s a powerful invitation to lean on His understanding rather than our own. This act of seeking God’s
wisdom is not just about gaining knowledge; it’s about building a deeper relationship
with Him, trusting in His perfect plan, and allowing His wisdom to shape our decisions

DEAR GOD: Thank You For The Word~

Bible | Come and See Christianity

The grass withers, the flower fades, But the word of our God stands forever.”
Isaiah 40:8 (KJV)

پــنـــــدار

When I see any kind of flower this verse above comes to my mind heart and soul immediately.  It brings another verse to my mind from John 1:14 – “And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, and we beheld His glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father, full of grace and truth.”  And then I grasp once again, the meaning of the Word- Jesus is the Word and He stands forever!  Amazing and so comforting.

My original thoughts on this verse are that it is a beautiful and profound statement of faith that inspires awe and wonder. It also challenges me to reflect on how I can respond to God’s love and revelation in Jesus Christ. How can I behold his glory, receive his grace, and follow his truth in my life? How can I share his love with others? These are some of the questions that this verse provokes in me. What about you?

The next time you see a flower – meditate on these verses and take in the enormity and overwhelming reality of who Christ is, what He has done for us. The WORD is powerfully comforting and a vast reminder of our salvation that was bought by Christ. His blood which covers us and His promises which are never ending, and His love which transcends all things and is unparalleled by any other Being.

“Father, thank You for Your enduring Word and for Your Son, my redeemer, all the days of my life I shall meditate on Your Word, and bring a daily reflection into the seconds of my life that is only possible because of You, in Jesus name, Amen.”
