A Grateful Beginning

“…the Lord delights in those who fear him…”
—Psalm 147:11a

Forgetting what we may think we lack, or even what we may think we’ve lost, let us begin this day with gratitude to God for what we do have. Let us join with the Psalmist from Psalm 147:7-11:

Sing to the Lord with grateful praise; make music to our God on the harp.

He covers the sky with clouds; he supplies the earth with rain and makes grass grow on the hills. He provides food for the cattle and for the young ravens when they call.

His pleasure is not in the strength of the horse, nor his delight in the legs of the warrior; the Lord delights in those who fear him, who put their hope in his unfailing love.

This day, let us delight in the Lord our God!
