Psalm 105
Psalm 105 invites us to slow down, look back, and remember the faithfulness of God. As we gather for Thanksgiving, this psalm becomes a gentle but powerful reminder that gratitude begins with remembering. “Give thanks to the Lord, call upon His name; make known His deeds among the peoples.” The psalmist walks through Israel’s history—not to recount facts, but to stir the heart, reminding God’s people how He guided, protected, provided, and fulfilled every promise.
Thanksgiving gives us the same opportunity. Before the table is full and the house grows loud, we are invited to pause and reflect on how God has carried us. Like Joseph, He has worked good from what felt painful. Like Israel in Egypt, He has delivered us from burdens we could not lift ourselves. Like His people in the wilderness, He has provided in ways we could never have orchestrated.
The psalm ends with God’s covenant faithfulness on display, and our response is obedience and praise. This week, remember not just the blessings on the table, but the God who never forgot you, never abandoned His promises, and never stopped leading you. Let Thanksgiving become worship, and let worship become your way of life.
