Quickword: Oh, Give Thanks Unto The Lord

On this Thanksgiving day, I deliberatel chose Psalms 118. I chose this particular Psalms because it opens and closes with the same instructions or directive. The Psalmist opens and closes the Psalm urging those who would hear, sing or speak these versus to start with the phrase Oh. Oh signifies great emotion.

Oh, the Lord is peace in a storm

As you share a meal today with family, friends and neighbors, at some point just take a moment and think of the goodness of the Lord. I believe it will elicit an Oh. It will cause you to cry out Oh, because the Lord has done something for each and everyone of us. He has blessed us publicly and privately. He has keep us in our going outs and coming ins, He has watched over us through dangers, seen and unseen. I thank God for those whom we share with today and I thank God for those love ones whose precious memories flood our hearts and minds, who chair is now empty and voice now silent. Oh, give thanks to the Lord, for He is good! For His mercy endures for ever! Wishing each and everyone of you a Happy and Blessed Thanksgiving !
