Psalm 95

1 Come, let us sing for joy to the Lord; let us shout aloud to the Rock of our salvation.

2 Let us come before him with thanksgiving and extol him with music and song.

3 For the Lord is the great God, the great King above all gods.

4 In his hand are the depths of the earth, and the mountain peaks belong to him.

5 The sea is his, for he made it, and his hands formed the dry land.

6 Come, let us bow down in worship, let us kneel before the Lord our Maker;

7 for he is our God and we are the people of his pasture,
the flock under his care.

Yesterday, this was the Psalm included in the Bible reading on youVersion. I took time throughout the day to jot down moments in which I found myself thankful, just quick notes to remind me that God is good through even the most mundane of daily circumstances. This was a great exercise for me. I’m thinking I need to do it more often.
