A dear friend shared this passage of Scripture with me from Psalm 118 last evening. What's "funny" is this morning at men's prayer I also read the entire Psalm aloud with my prayer partners without realizing it was the exact chapter given to me last evening. I think the Lord wants me to hear these words. As I understand it, this Psalm is likely a hymn Jesus and His disciples sang at Passover on the night before He was crucified.
Open for me the gates where the righteous enter, and I will go in and thank the
Lord. These gates lead to the presence of the Lord, and the godly enter there. I
thank you for answering my prayer and giving me victory! The stone that the
builders rejected has now become the cornerstone. This is the Lord’s doing, and
it is wonderful to see. This is the day the Lord has made. We will rejoice and
be glad in it. Please, Lord, please save us. Please, Lord, please give us
success. Bless the one who comes in the name of the Lord. We bless you from the
house of the Lord. The Lord is God, shining upon us. Take the sacrifice and bind
it with cords on the altar. You are my God, and I will praise you! You are my
God, and I will exalt you! Give thanks to the Lord, for he is good! His faithful
love endures forever. (Psalms 118:19-29 NLT)
Holiness Unto The LORD!
Grateful

We have much for which to thank God. Even in trying circumstance, which we all face, there are countless things — that often go unnoticed — that the Lord has given us, provided for us and is doing for us. When I sometimes find myself overwhelmed with frustration and impatience, it is good for me to begin recounting all the good things that i have from the Lord.
Wonderful wise words brother.
