Psalm 116

I read this today, and God really spoke to my heart...I love the way He says, "I will pray as long as I have breath!" God is merciful. I walk in His presence as I live here on earth! There is nothing I can offer the Lord for all He has done for me, but I can rest in the Salvation He has provided through Jesus. Oh how I am so thankful for that salvation.

"I love the Lord because He hears my voice and my prayer for mercy.
Because He bends down to listen, I will pray as long as I have breath!
Death wrapped its ropes around me; the terrors of the grave overtook me.
I saw only trouble and sorrow.
Then I called on the name of the Lord: 'Please Lord, save me!'
How kind the Lord is! How good He is!
So merciful, this God of ours!
The Lord protects those of childlike faith; I was facing death, and He saved me.
Let my soul rest again, for the Lord has been good to me.
He has saved me from death, my eyes from tears, my feet from stumbling.
And so I walk in the Lord's presence as I live here on earth!
I believed in you, so I said, 'I am deeply troubled, Lord.'
In my anxiety I cried out to you, 'These people are all liars!'
What can I offer the Lord for all He has done for me?
I will lift up the cup of Salvation and praise the Lord's name for saving me.
I will keep my promises to the Lord in the presence of all His people.
The Lord cares deeply when His loved ones die.
O Lord, I am your servant; yes I am your servant born into your household; you have freed me from my chains.
I will offer you a sacrifice of thanksgiving and call on the name of the Lord.
I will fulfill my vows to the Lord in the presence of all His people - in the house of the Lord in the heart of Jerusalem.
Praise the Lord!" - Psalm 116 NLT
