Psalm 103
103:1 [A Psalm] of David. Bless the LORD, O my soul: and all that is within me, [bless] his holy name.
103:2 Bless the LORD, O my soul, and forget not all his benefits:
103:3 Who forgiveth all thine iniquities; who healeth all thy diseases;
103:4 Who redeemeth thy life from destruction; who crowneth thee with lovingkindness and tender mercies;
103:5 Who satisfieth thy mouth with good [things; so that] thy youth is renewed like the eagle's.
103:6 The LORD executeth righteousness and judgment for all that are oppressed.
103:7 He made known his ways unto Moses, his acts unto the children of Israel.
103:8 The LORD [is] merciful and gracious, slow to anger, and plenteous in mercy.
103:9 He will not always chide: neither will he keep [his anger] for ever.
103:10 He hath not dealt with us after our sins; nor rewarded us according to our iniquities.
103:11 For as the heaven is high above the earth, [so] great is his mercy toward them that fear him.
103:12 As far as the east is from the west, [so] far hath he removed our transgressions from us.
103:13 Like as a father pitieth [his] children, [so] the LORD pitieth them that fear him.
103:14 For he knoweth our frame; he remembereth that we [are] dust.
103:15 [As for] man, his days [are] as grass: as a flower of the field, so he flourisheth.
103:16 For the wind passeth over it, and it is gone; and the place thereof shall know it no more.
103:17 But the mercy of the LORD [is] from everlasting to everlasting upon them that fear him, and his righteousness unto children's children;
103:18 To such as keep his covenant, and to those that remember his commandments to do them.
103:19 The LORD hath prepared his throne in the heavens; and his kingdom ruleth over all.
103:20 Bless the LORD, ye his angels, that excel in strength, that do his commandments, hearkening unto the voice of his word.
103:21 Bless ye the LORD, all [ye] his hosts; [ye] ministers of his, that do his pleasure.
103:22 Bless the LORD, all his works in all places of his dominion: bless the LORD, O my soul.

Pick your favorite part and maybe share some nice thoughts about it.

I like v. 14, it reminds me that it is ok to admit that I am weak. It's ok because He is strong, He loves us, and He cares about us.

One of my favorite Psalms! I have to pick two:
103:11 For as the heaven is high above the earth, [so] great is his mercy toward them that fear him.

>> As of right now, they estimate it would take 225 trillion years to reach the edge of the "known" universe.

103:12 As far as the east is from the west, [so] far hath he removed our transgressions from us.

>> East and West never meet. Infinite distance.

PSALM (103) 1-22.
This is an amazing Chapter...
The strength and comfort that it can bring
into the heart makes one feel over-come
with Love and Gratitude for our Maker...

THANKS, Oyster...

the Psalms reveal personal knowledge that some only read about in the rest of the Bible
