Let me begin by wishing everyone a happy new year! God is good and He has blessed me and my family in so many ways in 2019. I’m excited to see Him at work in 2020! Psalm 65 is a joyful Psalm of thanksgiving for God’s provision and salvation! Here the Psalmist shares of the goodness of God. Verse 11 says “You crown the year with a bountiful harvest; even the hard pathways overflow with abundance.” Friends, it’s my prayer that you know the God who “crowns the year”. It is He who has provided for our salvation. Verse 3 states “Iniquities prevail against me; As for our transgressions, You will provide atonement for them.” First and foremost, God has provided for the forgiveness of our sins through giving His son, Jesus, who paid the penalty for our sin. Secondly, Psalm 65 attests to how God provides for us even through the hard times we may experience! As we begin this new year, may we stand in awe of God, be joyful, and be encouraged by His goodness and provisions in our lives.
