When All Is Bad, Remember What Is Good
Let all that I am praise the Lord;
may I never forget the good things he does for me.
He forgives all my sins
and heals all my diseases.
He redeems me from death
and crowns me with love and tender mercies.
He fills my life with good things.
My youth is renewed like the eagle’s!
Psalm 103:2-5 (NLT)
When it looks like there’s nothing to praise God for these days, it’s time to pause and remember what God has done for us — to forgive us, heal us, and redeems us. In the rest of Psalm 103, King David recounts what God has done for His people:
The Lord is compassionate and merciful,
slow to get angry and filled with unfailing love.
(verse 8)
The Lord is like a father to his children,
tender and compassionate to those who fear him.
(verse 13)
But the love of the Lord remains forever
with those who fear him.
(verse 17)
There is still good to remember in the midst of turmoil and unending change, so as we go about today, let’s hold onto this promise: When the bad stuff is easier to see, God is still good.
