This week’s meditation is on Psalm 103:1,2:

Bless the Lord, O my soul,
    and all that is within me,
    bless his holy name!
² Bless the Lord, O my soul,
    and forget not all his benefits,

Lord, so often we come to you with our requests, with our concerns, our needs, and our wants. You tell us to bring our requests before you, and I do so often, but today I have no requests.

Today I just wanted to stop for a moment and reflect on all your wondrous deeds, and all you have done for me. Today I just wanted to thank you and praise you for all you have given me. I am truly blessed beyond what I deserve and I thank you.

Lord, I pray that I will always remember your goodness and how much you have done for me. I pray that you will always find me praising your Holy Name. Not just in the good times but also in the troubled times, for you are there in the troubled times lifting me up and carrying me through it.

Thank you God for all of it!

Amen
