Day 27 Psalm 147:1-3, 10-12

1 Praise the Lord! For it is good to sing praises to our God; for it is pleasant, and a song of praise is fitting.
2 The Lord builds up Jerusalem; he gathers the outcasts of Israel.
3 He heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds.
…
10 His delight is not in the strength of the horse, nor his pleasure in the legs of a man,
11 but the Lord takes pleasure in those who fear him, in those who hope in his steadfast love.
12 Praise the Lord, O Jerusalem! Praise your God, O Zion!

Reflection: Today, let us praise God for His building work! He Himself builds Jerusalem—His church—and gathers us together to heal and bind up our wounds. The world may admire strength and speed, but our God delights when we come to fear Him and to hope in His steadfast love and mercy. Come, let us all sing of God’s goodness, for words of praise are fitting! Hallelujah!
