THE STORY OF JESUS: Psalm 107
“Give thanks to the Lord… Let the redeemed of the Lord tell their story…” (Psalm 107:2)
We’re urged to share our God stories, how God helped, rescued or restored us.
God’s grace isn’t just for ministers or theologians, it is part of everyday life.
How has God helped, rescued, saved or restored you?
For me it is God’s forgiveness, patience and kindness despite my slowness.
I have not had traumatic life experiences, mine has been a slow, easy journey.
But that slow, easy journey has made me slow to learn, and easy to settle.
I don’t envy people’s dramatic testimonies, but I do envy their deep faith and joy.
My story is still my story, and in the end it will be all about God’s grace.
I still have issues in my life I need to deal with, but God gives me hope.
For me the greatest bless is how the Lord walks with me through these issues.
Through journaling and prayer, He regularly encourages or warns me.
Despite my weaknesses and failures, He sticks with me and draws me onward.
He assures me that He began my journey, He will see it through to completion.
This is why I thank the Lord: He really is good, and His love does last forever!
What do you sense the Lord saying to you?
PRAYER
Lord, thank You for Your faithful love throughout my journey. My story is not dramatic, but it is real, and it is mine. Remind me to tell my story too!
