Praise the Lord for He is great. He created the world, the first man and woman and all living things. He chose the family of Jacob to become a great nation and when the time was right, He sent a series of ten plagues upon the Egyptians that enslaved the Israelites. He enabled the Israelites to take possession of the “Promised Land” (Canaan) and defeated Israelites enemies, when the Israelites were obedient. Let everyone praise the Lord. [Reflection is based on the Bible Reference – Psalm 135]
