Sermon: "Bless The LORD Oh My Soul" // Psalm 103
What does it mean to "Bless the Lord" Do you ever just pray without asking God for anything? Just simply a prayer of adoration? We so easily forget the good things God has done for us. And so it's easy to forget to adore him. So remember what Christ has done for you and "Bless the Lord" To…

Reading is hard, reading poetry is harder! And when it comes to prayer we'd rather turn to almost anything else other than pray the psalms. It feels like we're reading someone else's prayers. Prayers of men from another age. But they were the prayers of Jesus. He speaks and praise the psalms...
