I should have known.

I should have read the Magnificat this morning. I should have read Psalm 145 and the reflection before it. I should have thought to do it right after I got on my knees and thanked God for His amazing Providence, for His beautiful gift to this family, yet again.

Here is what it said:

"It's a common mistake to think that God's 'works' and 'mighty deeds' are told only in Scripture. Every person's life is God's work of art, an expression of His creative love, His goodness, His compassion. A little thought can personalize this psalm for everyone who prays it."

I will give you glory, O God my King,
I will bless your name for ever.

I will bless you day after day
and praise your name for ever.
The Lord is great, highly to be praised,
His greatness cannot be measured.

Age to age shall proclaim Your works,
shall declare Your mighty deeds,
shall speak of Your splendor and Glory,
tell the tale of Your wonderful works.

......

Let me speak the praise of the Lord,
let all mankind bless His Holy Name
for ever, for ages unending.

Glory to the Father, to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit.
