The Worship Quote of the Week for (02/17/1998):

Thanksgiving Psalm Today's WORSHIP QUOTE is a very familiar psalm, but in a fresh setting by Eugene Peterson. If the shock is too great, you can look at Psalm 100 in your favorite translation. A THANKSGIVING PSALM On your feet now-applaud Yahweh! Bring a gift of laughter, sing yourself into his presence. Know this: Yahweh is God, and God Yahweh. He made us; we didn't make him. We're his people, his well-tended sheep. Enter with the password: "Thank you!" Make yourself at home, talking praise. Thank him. Worship him. For Yahweh is sheer beauty, all-generous in love, loyal always and ever. - Eugene H. Peterson, from THE MESSAGE: PSALMS, NavPress, 1994. [Don't forget the password!] Have a great week, Chip Stam
