Verse of the Day 10/8

Isaiah 63:7   I will make known the Lord's faithful love
and the Lord's praiseworthy acts,
because of all the Lord has done for us—
even the many good things
He has done for the house of Israel
and has done for them based on His compassion
and the abundance of His faithful love.   (HCSB)
 
Before moving on to another chain of thought, I thought I'd spend one more day on "making Jesus famous".  As I read this verse I thought of what a friend said this morning, he said " I thank the Lord every, before I even put my shoes on, for saving me, for lifting me out of the pit."  Do you remember to do the same every day for what He has done for you? 
 
While we normally sing this song around Thanksgiving, there is no reason why we can't sing it in our hearts or out loud every day of the year.  Think of what He has done for you personally, your family, your church and your country, for what He has done for all of us, yes give thanks and make Him known.
 
GIVE THANKS
WITH A GRATEFUL HEART
GIVE THANKS
TO THE HOLY ONE
GIVE THANKS
FOR HE'S GIVEN
JESUS CHRIST, HIS SON
 
AND NOW LET THE WEAK SAY
I AM STRONG
LET THE POOR SAY
I AM RICH
BECAUSE OF WHAT
THE LORD HAS DONE
FOR US
 
In Christ,
Mike

7 I will make known the Lord's faithful love
and the Lord's praiseworthy acts,
because of all the Lord has done for us—
even the many good things
He has done for the house of Israel
and has done for them based on His compassion
and the abundance of His faithful love.

8 He said, "They are indeed My people,
children who will not be disloyal,"
and He became their Savior.
9 In all their suffering, He suffered,
and the Angel of His Presence saved them.
He redeemed them
because of His love and compassion;
He lifted them up and carried them
all the days of the past.
