Give thanks to the Lord, for he is good; his love endures forever.
— Psalm 107:1

Thoughts on Today's Verse...

What do we have that won't wear out, break, die, go out of style, or ever need repair? We can rejoice and give thanks because our life and future are tied to the Eternal Father, the creator of the heavens and maker of our world. Not only is God good, but he is also good to us. But more than just being good, he is loving, and his love will not wear out, grow old, fade away, or need repair.

My Prayer...

Thank you, El Shaddai,[1] the great Almighty. You have given me your grace, showered me with your blessings, and promised that your love for me will live beyond the shadows of my few days on earth. Thank you forever. In the name of Jesus my Lord. Amen. 
[1] El Shaddai means "God Almighty" or "God of the Mountains."
