Bless the Lord, oh my soul!

A prayer based on Psalm 103.

Living God,You have established your throne in the heavens,Your kingdom rules over all.There is no-where we can go and you do not reignThere is no time when you take a break or nip off for a holiday.You reign forever.

Gracious God,You are good.Your rule is just and fair; your actions are always right.

You don't sit back and watch from your throne,no - you are bringing about righteousness and justice for all who are oppressed.We praise you for the righteousness you have brought to us in your Son Jesus Christ.We thank you for the depth of love we know in Him.We are so grateful, that because of Him - you have got rid of all our sin, wiped our slate clean, never to recall our sin.

Lord we are weak and frail.We don't find it as easy to forget our sins.We can't let go of the failings of others.Help us to demonstrate the same love that you have for us.May we show your love as we love one another.May we too work for righteousness and justice.Let your Kingdom come.

We have much to be thankful for.Many reasons to praise you.Enable us to worship you, with all of our beings.May not forget your many blessings.May we join in the eternal song, of all creation.

Living God,Receive our praise and thanks.In our Saviours name we pray.Amen
