Psalm 145:1-9
1 I will exalt you, my God the King;
I will praise your name for ever and ever.
2 Every day I will praise you
and extol your name for ever and ever.
I will praise your name for ever and ever.
2 Every day I will praise you
and extol your name for ever and ever.
3 Great is the Lord and most worthy of praise;
his greatness no one can fathom.
4 One generation commends your
his greatness no one can fathom.
4 One generation commends your
works to another;
they tell of your mighty acts.
5 They speak of the glorious splendor
they tell of your mighty acts.
5 They speak of the glorious splendor
of your majesty—
and I will meditate on your wonderful works.
6 They tell of the power of your awesome works—
and I will proclaim your great deeds.
7 They celebrate your abundant goodness
and joyfully sing of your righteousness.
and I will meditate on your wonderful works.
6 They tell of the power of your awesome works—
and I will proclaim your great deeds.
7 They celebrate your abundant goodness
and joyfully sing of your righteousness.
8 The Lord is gracious and compassionate,
slow to anger and rich in love.
slow to anger and rich in love.
9 The Lord is good to all;
he has compassion on all he has made
he has compassion on all he has made
We have heard a few times that God is good and God does good for those who draw near. But what does good mean to you? Does it mean we can have all that we want or does it mean that God even went to the point of death in Jesus Christ so that we can have all that we need?
