  1. What does this passage show me about God?

    • What benefits does the psalmist tell his soul not to forget?
  2. What does it show me about people — and about myself?

    • The LORD has compassion like a father on his children — how does that compare with the way you picture him?
  3. What will I obey this week? (a concrete step, with a day)

    • How will you bless the LORD out loud this week for one specific thing he has done?
  4. Who will I tell?

    • Who could you tell how far God removes our sins — as far as the east is from the west?

Grow

Growth is God's part, not yours. Do the cycle faithfully and trust Him to give the growth (1 Corinthians 3:6–7).

Pray

Father, you crown me with love and compassion and remove my sins as far as the east is from the west. Let everything within me bless your holy name.
