In Psalms 103, David tells himself to never forget all the good things the Lord has done for him and then to remind himself, he begins to recount some of his blessings.
He forgives me.
He heals all my diseases.
He strengthens me physically in my old age.
He ransoms me from death.
He fills my life with good things.
Those are truly some amazing blessings. Reading someone else's list is inspiring but nothing grounds you and brings it home like taking a detailed look at your own life, seriously considering all the good things God has done for you, and compiling your own list. I would certainly want to start with David's list, but for my list, I would also add:
He is patient with me, so very patient.
He teaches me; he is always showing me new things.
He answers my questions. I love the way He does that!
He gives me encouragers: my husband, other family members, friends & coworkers.
He reminds me daily, in little and big ways, that He loves me. How amazing and special is that!?!
So, in Psalms 103-2015, what does your list look like? What do you want to tell yourself to never forget?
