O-M-Goodness

Psalm 107:1 “O give thanks unto the Lord for He is good for His mercy endures forever”

Just about everyone knows what the acronym “OMG” stands for - Oh My God. It’s used to express shock, or excitement or disbelief. The way I look at it…OMG means that when God is your God, goodness and mercy follow you all the days of your life (Psalm 23:6). No shock, and definitely no disbelief, just pure excitement.

This Thanksgiving we all have so much to be thankful for. As in Psalm 107:1, first and foremost, we can be thankful that God is GOOD. I know that sounds simple but I’m so glad that it didn’t say that the Lord is mostly good, or sometimes good, or is good and bad. The Lord is GOOD! That’s who He is and that’s the heart essence of the Gospel.

Then Psalm 107:1 says His mercy endures (I love this) forever. The Hebrew word for mercy is the Hesed which means grace or favor. Give thanks because His grace and favor is forever, it never changes, it’s for now and eternity! Celebrate His personal goodness toward you and your family this Thanksgiving with a hearty O-M-Goodness! Have fun!
