Say So Now

"Praise the LORD for His goodness" - five times in Psalm 107 this theme is expressed - the goodness, the mercy, the lovingkindness of the One true God, Jehovah.  This is an imperative - a command, an essential or urgent thing.  Perhaps we've lost something crucial to our faith: the deep sense of wonder about God, the works of God, the things of God.  The dedicated times and places of wonder is not where we live, however.  Even those who live in [what we call] the "dreamy" places, soon become all-to-familiar with the surroundings and also lose their sense of wonder.  How do is the thirsty and hungry souls "satisfied" (V.9)?  One focus: thanksgiving - a grateful heart!  Not in spite of our circumstances or locale, but in the midst of every circumstance and place.  "Who is wise? Let him give heed to these things, and consider the goodness of the LORD." (V.43).  I challenge you: do not wait for the right time or the right place or the right circumstance. "Let the redeemed of the LORD say so" (V.2) and ... say so now!
