"AND THE PRAISES OF THE LORD," according to all that the Lord has bestowed on us. What subject is so suited as this to engage the thoughts, fill the memory, and flow from the lips of the Lord's people? Let us mention the provision made for all His poor, for all their wants; the promises given to all His people, comprehending all their desires; the prayers answered in all times of trial, granting relief and defence. Let us mention the lovingkindness of the Lord to those who are seeking Him and it will encourage them; to those who are complaining,it may silence them; to those who are tempted, it will support them; to those who have backslidden, it will perhaps restore them. Let us speak of His kindness to ourselves, to restrain murmuring, produce gratitude, and raise hope. Let us mention the lovingkindness of the Lord, at the throne, in pleading and intercession, in prayer and supplication, in praise and thanksgiving. Let us speak often one to another, and let this be our daily delight: "The lovingkindness of the Lord." This will comfort, strengthen, and soothe our minds; it will bring us inner peace.

For Meditation:
We'll speak of all He did and said,
And suffered for us here below;
The path He marked for us to tread,
And what He's doing for us now:
Discarding every worldly theme,
Our speaking only filled with Him.
