Yesterday we were discussing keeping God at the top of our thankful list – above all the great gifts He has given. And we said it was easy to let God slip from this spot if we didn’t work at knowing Him more and more. After all, it’s impossible to be in a thankful relationship with someone I barely know – or rarely think about – or only sporadically spend time with.
And so, daily digging into His Word where He reveals Himself to those who are seeking Him is the best way to deepen our understanding and appreciation of who He is and what He has done for us. And, as an extra bonus, we also can receive valuable instruction on how to live to please Him when we dive into the 66 love letters He has sent to us.
If someone isn’t used to opening God’s Word to get to know Him better, it might seem a bit daunting. It is indeed a big book. A big book written many generations ago. But still written with YOU in mind. And written to show you who your Heavenly Father is and how to have a relationship with Him.
Let’s pull up our Psalm for the week and see what we can find out about God in these verses.
Psalm 100
A psalm. For giving grateful praise.
1 Shout for joy to the Lord, all the earth.
2 Worship the Lord with gladness;
come before him with joyful songs.
3 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.
4 Enter his gates with thanksgiving
and his courts with praise;
give thanks to him and praise his name.
5 For the Lord is good and his love endures forever;
his faithfulness continues through all generations.
