Pastor Dale shared that it is possible that Jesus and His disciples, at the close of His Passover meal with them, sang the words of Psalm 136. He encouraged us to follow the pattern of the psalm and write a few lines of our own. Once I got started, I didn't want to stop, as my thoughts were flooded with the Lord's goodness. Here's just a few of them. I'm going to write more after I post this. Oh, how He loves it when we praise Him. Please join me by writing your Psalm 136 thoughts and when you are done, consider posting them. But, whether you post or not, take a few minutes and give thanks to Him.
It will be well worth your time.
Oh, give thanks to the LORD for He is good! For His mercy endures forever.
To Him who forgives all my sin. For His mercy endures forever.
And rescued me from me. For His mercy endures forever.
To Him who calls back the wayward ones. For His mercy endures forever.
And loves me unconditionally. For His mercy endures forever.
To Him who is coming again. For His mercy endures forever.
And has reserved a place for me. For His mercy endures forever.
To Him who calls me that is faithful. For His mercy endures forever.
And equips me to walk in His ways. For His mercy endures forever.
To Him who transforms the sinner. For His mercy endures forever.
And makes all things new. For His mercy endures forever.
To Him who puts a song in my heart. For His mercy endures forever.
And rejoices over me with singing. For His mercy endures forever.
To Him who inhabits my praises. For His mercy endures forever.
And records my meditations of Him in a book. For His mercy endures forever.
Oh give thanks to the God of heaven! For His mercy endures forever.
Oh give thanks to the Lord for He is good! His mercy endures forever!

I wrote my own "Psalm 136" this morning. It was a sweet time of worship. Thank you, Pastor, for encouraging us to do it. The beautiful thing is that we could write a Psalm every day and still not run out of praises.
