God with us - Week 46: Psalm 136:26
I haven't got the days wrong, I'm just giving you a head start as this week is a little bit different!
Give thanks to the Lord, for he is good!
His faithful love endures forever.
Psalm 136:26
After spending significant time trying to find the words for this week’s blog, and tangling myself in knots, I got the message loud and clear!
Keep it simple.
So I have!
First of all, read through Psalm 136 in your favourite translation (the link will take you to Bible Gateway).
You’ll notice that in this Psalm, we are reminded of God’s faithfulness twenty-six times. Throughout this week, take twenty-six moments to give thanks for God’s faithfulness in your life. I’ve attached a pdf that you can print off and jot down your words of thanks.
You can follow the soulwithaview Facebook or Instagram pages and there will be twenty-six reminders at random points throughout the week. At first I wasn’t sure whether to post that many reminders as it seemed like a lot, but are there really too many times to give thanks to God for His faithfulness?
I’m not sure there are.
For those of you who are not on social media then there are twenty-six translations of Psalm 136:26 listed below. These can be used alongside the attached pdf.
If you purchased a “God with us” jar at the start of the year, then here is your chance to fill it up before 2021 comes to an end instead of using the sheet.
You don’t have to limit yourself to twenty-six times, but let’s spend this week in an attitude of thanksgiving.
