When
I visited Mexico, I wished I knew how to speak Spanish. I could say gracias (thank
you), muy
bien (very good), and hola (hello). But that was
about it. I grew tired of just saying gracias to everyone who talked with me or did something for me. But we should never grow tired of giving words of thanks to
God. David knew the importance of saying thanks. After he became king over Israel and had a tent constructed to house the ark of the covenant (where God’s presence dwelt), he appointed some of the Levites “to commemorate, to thank, and to praise the Lord” (1 Chron. 16:4). Many people remained there to offer sacrifices and give thanks to God daily (vv.37-38).   His psalm gave thanks for what the Lord had done: “His deeds among the peoples” (v.8), “His wondrous works” (v.9), “His wonders, and the judgments of His mouth” (v.12), and His “salvation” (v.35). David’s song
also gave praise for who the Lord was:
good, merciful, and holy (vv.34-35). |

Oh, give thanks to the Lord! —1 Chronicles 16:8 |
Like
David, we should never grow tired of sayinggracias to God for who He is and
for all He’s done for us. Take time today to offer your sacrifice of
praise to Him.

🗓️ Sermón 1: La Presencia de Dios en Medio de la Ausencia Humana • Fecha Sugerida: Miércoles 1 (Inicio) • Título: ¡No Estás Solo! Dios Mismo se Ocupa de Ti • Texto Central: Salmo 23 (Énfasis en los versículos 1-4) • Objetivo: Trasladar la confianza de la gente de lo que los líderes hacen o no hacen a lo que Dios es y hace. 💡 Puntos Clave: 1. La Realidad del Vacío (V. 1a, 2a, 3a): La gente está sintiendo una necesidad profunda (falta de pastoreo, de provisión, de dirección). Mencionar el dolor sin culpar, solo describiendo el sentimiento de abandono. 2. El Pastor Ideal es Jehová (V. 1-2): El Salmo 23 no empieza diciendo "Mi pastor humano" sino "Jehová es mi pastor, nada me faltará." ◦ Provisión y Descanso: Él provee paz ("en lugares de delicados pastos") y restauración ("confortará mi alma"). Donde el hombre falla, Dios es fiel. ◦ Él se ocupa de l...
