"ONLY FEAR THE LORD AND SERVE HIM IN TRUTH." We  are all too apt to dwell upon our miseries and forget our mercies. If we are injured by man how long we remember  it; but if we are favoured by God how soon we forget! Let us this morning consider how great things the Lord hath done for us. He gave His Son for our ransom, His Spirit to be our guide, and His word to be our directory. He saved us by His grace when we were heading for perdition; wrought a change in our hearts when we were enemies fighting against Him; He pardoned our sins when we  deserved His fiercest displeasure. He has given us faith to trust Him, promises to plead with Him, and proofs of His faithfulness without number. He hath supplied us through all our sojourning, corrected our waywardness, conquered our foes: indeed, no good thing hath He  withheld from us. Let us ponder and praise Him for the past, and trust Him more for the future. He our God is the God of our salvation; He hath done great things for us, and He will do yet greater things that we may glorify Him forever. My soul, consider His mighty acts and give glory to thy God.

For Meditation:
O may I ne'er forget
The mercy of my God;
Nor ever want a tongue to spread
His loudest praise abroad.
