The end of Psalm 107
The upright see and rejoice, but all the wicked shut their mouths. Let the one
who is wise heed these
things and ponder the loving deeds of the Lord.
We’ve come to the end of Psalm 107, and we’ve seen the ways of the
Lord, and his deeds.
God isn’t a genie in a bottle, although we’d like him to appear
when we rub our hands together and grant each wish we present to him.
However, he is a good, loving Father who knows just what we need
on any given day or in any given year.
Nothing surprises him, and nothing we encounter is too difficult for him
to provide a way out, and to set us on secure ground again.
If we are wise, we will give credence to His word and learn to
trust in his unfailing goodness and love, obey his word, and “ponder” his
loving deeds.
To ponder means to think over for a while, and while thinking we
need to recognize that all that He does in our lives, every deed he performs,
is love, because God is love.
When we prosper and enjoy all good things, He is love.
When we suffer and cry out in despair, He is love.
Do you see it?
