Psalm 117 - Short Psalm


"Praise the Lord, all you nations;
    extol him, all you peoples.
For great is his love toward us,
and the faithfulness of the Lord endures forever." (Psalm 117 NIV)

For those of you who are not reading your Bible daily along with these blogs, that is the entire Psalm. To satisfy your desire (or maybe mine) for trivia: Psalm 117 is not only the shortest the Psalm in the Bible, it is also the shortest chapter in the Bible. It goes to show a lot can be conveyed with just a few words.

This Psalm speaks to me words of joy, maybe even the ecstasy, of knowing that God loves us and His faithfulness to us will never end. While the love and faithfulness we desire can be quite fleeting in this world, we can count on the love and faithfulness of God for us to be there always.

Praise the LORD!

God's Peace - Pr. J.
