Psalm 107
---
In *His Wonderful Works* from Psalm 107, Jed Gillis shows that gratitude is not reserved for easy seasons but grows out of seeing God’s character in the middle of real crises. The psalm paints four portraits of God’s people as hungry wanderers, rebellious captives, foolish sufferers, and limited adventurers on stormy seas, all brought to the end of themselves. Each group reaches a breaking point, cries out to the Lord, and discovers that he alone satisfies, frees, heals, and brings them safely home. God may let us feel the weight of our choices or our limitations, yet he delights to turn deserts into springs and chains into praise. The wise response is to cry to him instead of trusting our control, remember how he has already delivered us in Christ, and let the redeemed “say so” by giving thanks for his steadfast love even when life still feels like a wilderness or a storm.
