Our previous Wednesday’s Psalm (4.28.10): Hallelujah! God Never Fails (Ps 105:1-45) Two key concepts dominate this psalm: Remember! and God acts.

Last Wednesday’s psalm: Bless the Lord, O my Soul (2) (Ps 104:1-35) This psalm, a companion and meditation on Ps 103, speaks to us of our ordered world, set in place by our majestic and glorious God to sustain us and keep us alive so that we might praise him.
