“Give thanks to the Lord, for He is good, for His steadfast love endures forever” (Psalm 136). Our God is worthy to be praised for who He is (as we saw last week from Psalm 96) and for what He does – for His goodness and His love for His people. As we worship Him, will you join with us in prayer as we prepare to gather with God’s people this Sunday?
