Psalm 103:1-11
1 Bless the Lord, O my soul,
and all that is within me,
bless his holy name!
2 Bless the Lord, O my soul,
and forget not all his benefits,
3 who forgives all your iniquity,
who heals all your diseases,
4 who redeems your life from the pit,
who crowns you with steadfast love and mercy,
5 who satisfies you with good
so that your youth is renewed like the eagle's.
6 The Lord works righteousness
and justice for all who are oppressed.
7 He made known his ways to Moses,
his acts to the people of Israel.
8 The Lord is merciful and gracious,
slow to anger and abounding in steadfast love.
9 He will not always chide,
nor will he keep his anger forever.
10 He does not deal with us according to our sins,
nor repay us according to our iniquities.
11 For as high as the heavens are above the earth,
so great is his steadfast love toward those who fear him
We are not sure when Christ was born, yet we know He gave Himself for us in the spring, at the time of Passover. The sweetness and sadness of life are brought together at the end of Holy Week.
Vivaldi's Spring (this choreography by Wintermood) was played at my wedding. Antonio Lucio Vivaldi was known as the Red Priest for his red hair. He was a priest, a Venetian Baroque composer and famous violinist. 1678-1741.
A perfect way to praise Him, remembering His benefits & listening to this beauty. Almighty God, in Jesus Christ, sending forth His Holy Spirit.
Forgiveness. Healing. Redemption. Steadfast Love. Goodness. Mercy. Renewal, like the flight of an eagle. Righteousness. Justice. As High as the Heavens, is God's love for us.
