Bless the LORD, O my soul!

Psalm 103:1-2, “Bless the LORD, O my soul: and all that is within me, bless his holy name. Bless the LORD, O my soul, and forget not all his benefits:”
 
This psalm has soul. Saturated with praise. This is the natural response for those who have trusted and are trusting in the precious name of Christ Jesus. Rather than hearts and minds full of anxiety, strife, bitterness, or the grind of this world, how much better it is for our souls to be overflowing with adoration to and for the holy, covenant making and covenant keeping Lord. God’s goodness is not just something about which we read but something to be experienced. Our souls will produce music as sweet and as exhilarating as this as we daily trust the Lord whose mercy endures forever.
