“Give thanks to the Lord, for He is good! His faithful love endures forever. Has the Lord redeemed you? Then speak out! Tell others He has redeemed you from your enemies.”
“Some went off to sea in ships, plying the trade routes of the world. They, too, observed the Lord’s power in action, , His impressive works on the deepest seas. He spoke and the winds rose, stirring up the waves. Their ships were tossed into the heavens and plunged again into the depths; the sailers cringed in terror. Thy relied and staggered like drunkards and were at their wit’s end. ‘Lord help! they cried in their trouble, and He saved them from their distress. He calmed the storm to a whisper and stilled the waves. What a blessing was that stillness as He brought them safely into harbor! Let them praise the wonderful things He has done for them. Let them exalt Him publicly before the congregation and the before the leaders of the nation.”
“Those who are wise will take all this to heart; they will see in our history the faithful love of the Lord.” (Psalm 107: 1-8, 23-31, 43, NLT)
