From the Pulpit...

The Psalms can be categorized into six main groups emphasizing different content: praise, thanksgiving, laments, trust, wisdom, or kingship. Psalms 105 and 106 are thanksgiving Psalms focusing on God and His works, along with His mercy in the face of utter human failure. It is interesting to note that Psalm 105 focuses on God and His works, while Psalm 106 focuses on the failure of man and the steadfastness of God to keep His promises, even when the people did not keep faithful.

We learn a lot in this passage about thanksgiving, particularly by applying it as a way to smash the sins of complaint, greed, materialism, pride, and the like. If you think you are thankful enough, listen to this message and double check!
