Psalms 103: Bless the Lord, My Soul

Psalm 103 is titled By David. David tells his soul to praise Yahweh and remember all his benefits. God forgives sins, heals, and crowns us with loving kindness. He is merciful and gracious. As far as the east is from the west, so far has he removed our transgressions from us. Like a father, he has compassion on his children.
