Today’s Scripture…
Psalms 103:1-5
1 Praise the LORD, my soul; all my inmost being, praise his holy name. 2 Praise the LORD, my soul, and forget not all his benefits—3 who forgives all your sins and heals all your diseases, 4 who redeems your life from the pit and crowns you with love and compassion, 5 who satisfies your desires with good things so that your youth is renewed like the eagle’s.
Thoughts…
Who forgives all your sins and heals all your diseases? Who redeems your life from the pit? Who crowns you with love and compassion? Who satisfies your desires with good things?
Can you just take a moment and read that paragraph again. What else do we really need? The bottom line is God is there for you with whatever your need and whenever you need it.
They key word there is “need”. He is not there with whatever you want, whenever you want it. Even verse 5 says “satisfies your desires with good things”. I may think I need a new car. I may want a brand new SUV. However, I am not living on a budget that can support that SUV. God will give me what is good for me when the time is right.
It is important to remember to thank God for being there for us. He is always ready to jump in and help. He will provide you with what is best for you!
Prayer…
Lord, I just want to take this moment to thank you for knowing what is best for me in your perfect timing. ~amen
