What do we do when we simply don’t feel like worshiping, or feel too distracted to worship? Psalm 103 begins with a surprising command: “Praise the Lord, O' my soul.” Rather than waiting for our feelings to lead us, the Psalm invites us to remind our hearts who God is and what He has done. He forgives, redeems, heals, satisfies, and surrounds us with steadfast love and compassion. He knows our weakness, loves us as a compassionate Father, and reigns over all things. We’ll call our own souls to remember God's character and his love for us. This can steady our hearts, awaken our worship, and lead us to a place of deep trust in the one who is worthy of worship.
