Joyful!
“Praise the Lord!
Psalm 106:1 NLT
Give thanks to the Lord, for he is good!
His faithful love endures forever.”
In case you are wondering, this is not the post I had planned for this week. Due to a medical emergency in my family, I am a little behind on the next chapter of my story. But I am working on it and should have it ready for next week. In the meantime, I want to take a moment to offer praises for a good outcome! This post is dedicated to my mom. Please enjoy her favorite hymn, “Joyful, Joyful, We Adore Thee.”
This week’s Scripture passages are all psalms of praise and gratitude. Give thanks to the Lord, for He is good! His faithful love endures forever …
“Joy rises in my heart until I burst out in songs of praise to him.”
Psalm 28:7 TLB

About The Author
Christa
My vision for Wondertakings was to create a devotional blog for "nerdy" Christians like me. I do believe, as Socrates said, that wisdom begins in wonder. So I love to read or watch anything that inspires wonder and figure out what I can learn from it. I view it all through a Christian lens. I believe that God can and does speak through many sources in many ways, even if those speaking are not aware of it. I am not an expert in theology or religious studies. My goal with this blog is simply to share what I've learned as a fellow student and sinner in the Christian walk. My hope and my prayer is that by doing so I may be able to help someone else. In Deuteronomy 5:33 (NLT), we are told: "Stay on the path that the Lord your God has commanded you to follow. Then you will live long and prosperous lives. . . ." So in the words of Moses (and Spock), live long and prosper, my friends!
