Praise the Lord!
Give thanks to the Lord, for He is good!
His faithful love endures forever.
Who can list the glorious miracles of the Lord?
Who can ever praise him enough?
Psalms 106:1-2

“Who can ever praise Him enough?”  That’s an interesting question!  Did David with his contributions to the Book of Psalms praise the Lord enough?  And what exactly does enough praise look like to Someone whose love endures forever?  Has God ever said to anyone, “Stop! You have praised Me enough.”

I can’t list every glorious miracle of the Lord and I can’t reach the point of “enough praise,” but I can give thanks to the Lord for His love that surely does endure forever.

I was raised in a home where I knew of God.  I have a few memories of going to church. I can remember being baptized more than a handful of times as a child.  I also remember in my teen years, when I was struggling with my mental health, hating a God I neither knew or understood.  I was aware there was a God, but I did not understand His role and if He was such a good God why was my life the way it was. I can remember announcing that if there was a God He didn’t want anything to do with me and I didn’t want anything to do with Him.  He was the Creator of this game we call life and I didn’t want to play anymore.  I even began to believe the lie that I was a mistake and it wasn’t fair for Him to put me here and then leave me to fend for myself.

You made all the delicate, inner parts of my body
and knit me together in my mother’s womb.
Thank you for making me so wonderfully complex!
Your workmanship is marvelous—how well I know it.
Psalms 139:13-14

This was one of the truths of God’s Word that took me a long time to believe. I am not a mistake and God’s Word says that He took the time to put me together.  God took His time making all His creations, nobody was an accident.  His Word says that He knows the very number of hairs on my head.  God did not stick me on Earth and leave me to figure it out.  Quite the opposite- God put me here and was simply waiting for me to stop and listen to Him.
I may not be able to list all of the Lord’s glorious miracles, but I know enough of them personally and have experienced plenty of His grace to know that my God is good and His love does endures forever. For His graciousness I am forever thankful.
