Sweet Satisfaction

Good to be home.  I look forward to being able to preach today.   It is a privilege that never grows old. 

I read Psalm 107 this morning and what a blessing it is.  This Psalm is speaking of the blessings of the Lord and the need for the blessed to give Him credit to all. His care is vast, His blessing plenty, His Love boundless.   
He will give a home to the homeless (v.4-9), will free the prisoner bringing sweet release ( v.10-16), will bring back the wayward (v.17-22), will calm the storm and bring rest to the soul (v.23-32), will bring water to the desert (v.33-38), will pick up the down and shut out the wicked (v.39-42).  It may be best summarized in v.9- For he satisfies the longing soul, and the hungry soul he fills with good things.
What is it you said you needed of the Lord?  What in the world are you worried about?  He is faithful and able.  If He would do it but couldn't, we would be in trouble.  If He could do it but wouldn't, we would be in trouble.  But He can and will, so what do we have to concern ourselves with? 
It is a blessing to know that we serve a Risen Savior who LIVES to intercede for us.   Enjoy Him in Worship today.
