Psalm 145:14 The Lord upholds all who fall and lifts up all who are bowed down.

One of the biggest things I am reminded of each time I go into hospital is how much God loves me and how much He looks after me!

Each time I have been in hospital and doctors have reminded me I may die, I have probably looked a bit strange to them because I have God’s peace in my heart!

This last time I was anxious about the pending difficult surgery, but have been rewarded with peace and calm by placing my trust (and the surgeons hands) in God’s hands!

Psalm 80:19 Restore us, Lord God Almighty; make your face shine on us, that we may be saved.

You can never do too much so that God will not forgive you – He is always waiting for you to ask Him…

Our Father in Heaven has done all that is required for us to be forgiven for even the most grievous sins…

Ask Christ to restore you as a child of God!

Psalm 51:1 Have mercy on me, O God, according to your unfailing love; according to your great compassion blot out my transgressions.

When you get into trouble, who do you turn to to seek forgiveness? Do you get forgiven?

We have a Father in Heaven who has promised to faithfully forgive us when we come to Him and ask forgiveness.

His mercy and compassion knows no bounds – He will always forgive!

Psalm 118:15 Shouts of joy and victory resound in the tents of the righteous: ‘The Lord’s right hand has done mighty things!

As I read this psalm I was reminded of a tweet an acquaintance posted on Twitter – they complained about a group of over exuberant Christians who were singing worship songs in the car park of a hotel very late at night…

Whilst I always like hearing large groups of Christians singing joyous songs to God, this group were obviously oblivious to the needs of people trying to sleep!

God wants us to shout and sing, but not to make other irate because we are keeping them from living their lives!
