Psalm 105 -- Us In The Details


David recounts most of the history of the Israelites in this one psalm.  Listening to everything God did for them, it’s easy to see that they are His chosen people.



There was one sentence that stuck out early on, and when I finished reading, I went back and saw how amazingly it summed up what our feelings should be toward a God who would do all these things for us:



“Be glad that you are His.”



Be glad that God loved you enough to seek you out, to draw you to Himself, and to save You.  Understand that He didn’t have to do it.  But He did.  Not because of anything worthwhile that He saw in us.  But simply because He loves.



Father, I’m still amazed that You cared enough for me to do all that.  I was totally unworthy and deserving of death instead, yet You pursued me and purchased me with the death of Your own Son.  Such love!



Your Brother In Christ,

Gary Ford
