During Christmas, my church has been extending our fall season of studying Psalms. I wanted to share the psalm that was preached on Christmas Eve because it is perfect for what we celebrate today.
1 Sing to the Lord a new song,
for he has done marvelous things;
his right hand and his holy arm
have worked salvation for him.
2 The Lord has made his salvation known
and revealed his righteousness to the nations.
3 He has remembered his love
and his faithfulness to Israel;
all the ends of the earth have seen
the salvation of our God.
4 Shout for joy to the Lord, all the earth,
burst into jubilant song with music;
5 make music to the Lord with the harp,
with the harp and the sound of singing,
6 with trumpets and the blast of the ram’s horn—
shout for joy before the Lord, the King.
7 Let the sea resound, and everything in it,
the world, and all who live in it.
8 Let the rivers clap their hands,
let the mountains sing together for joy;
9 let them sing before the Lord,
for he comes to judge the earth.
He will judge the world in righteousness
Psalm 98
I hope this Christmas is a joyful, peaceful, hopeful season for you and that you will know God’s presence as we close 2017 and enter a new year.
Blessings to you,
Sarah
and the peoples with equity.
Thank you Sarah! May all the joys of the Christmas season be yours. God is so good!
