"Can't see the forest for the trees" is more than a cliche. It is a vulnerability in each one of us. We can be so wrapped up by what is in front of us, pleasure or pain, that we fail to see the larger Hand of God. As Dr. John continues with Psalm 147, we learn that God is at work in everything. So, in everything, we can place our hope in Him.
It's easy to sing at a wedding, but harder to sing at a funeral. Yet both occasions call for songs of praise and worship. Psalm 147 commands us to praise our Lord, regardless of our context. We are to praise God in pain or pleasure. Dr. John reminds us that worship not only exalts our King - it heals the heart of the worshipper.
Loyalty can be bought. People may stick with a brand or political party because of the perks. God doesn't work that way. In fact, our loyalty is often tested through hardships. Listen as Dr. John teaches from Psalm 147 about faithfulness and celebration for our King. Consider the question, "Why am I loyal to Jesus despite the hardships?"
