Psalm 100

Psalm 100
Shout for joy to the Lord, all the earth.
    Worship the Lord with gladness;
    come before him with joyful songs.
Know that the Lord is God.
    It is he who made us, and we are his;
    we are his people, the sheep of his pasture.
Enter his gates with thanksgiving
    and his courts with praise;
    give thanks to him and praise his name.
For the Lord is good and his love endures forever;

    his faithfulness continues through all generations.


In times like these, I need to cling to the knowledge that our Lord is God. I need to hold tight to His promises. I need to remember that I belong to Him.

In good times and in bad, I need abide in His steadfast love. I need to be still in His presence and stand firm in the knowledge that I am His. I am the sheep of His pasture thanks to the humility and sacrifice of my Shepherd.

No matter what life brings, I need to come to Him with thanksgiving in my heart. Because despite my surroundings and present troubles, His love never changes. He is good and His love endures forever.

His steadfast love and faithfulness are things I desperately need right now. The world feels so unsteady and uncertain; I need His faithful ways and His constant love. I need His guidance and His deliverance. I need Him. I need the Lord. I need my God.

So despite the present troubles of today, I will shout to the Lord. I will be still and come to Him with thanksgiving because I am fiercely loved and looked after. My Shepherd continues to lead and guide me through this life and the Thereafter.

Therefore, no matter what, I will praise His name, I will give thanks. For He is always with me and will continue to watch over me - for I am His.

Thanks be to God, I am His.
