Trivia:
Good job everyone, I have personally used this word, "deja vu" however I didn't know the exact definition of this word. It actually means, "Already seen". Many times it is used to express the feeling of what seemed an experience that you already were experienced.
Which of these countries doesn't have an airport? Nepal; Laos; Andorra; Malta?

Psalm 102:18-22 "Let this be recorded for future generations, so that a people not yet born will praise the Lord. 19 Tell them the Lord looked down from His heavenly sanctuary. He looked down to earth from heaven 20 to hear the groans of the prisoners, to release those condemned to die. 21 And so the Lord's fame will be celebrated in Zion, His praises in Jerusalem, 22 When multitudes gather together and kingdoms come to worship the Lord."
This part of the Psalm expresses to us just how faithful our God is to all of mankind, from those who are enslaved and imprisoned to all others who gather in adoration of the Lord. In order that all of mankind both past generations, as well as, those living in the present may know of God's gracious care for all.
The beginning phrase "Let this be recorded" is speaking of these verses that we are looking at today, but also on the past verses of this Psalm. It especially is focusing on verse 13 where it says, "You will arise and have mercy on Jerusalem." This is living proof that He loves this peculiar people who He has chosen to declare the extent of His love for any people who will draw themselves to Him, us included.
These words are meant to help us understand the faithful purposes of God for His people, both now and the future, whether we always obey Him or not. In the same way we should reflect back on our parents though they were far from perfect, they to the best of their abilities attempted to provide proper instruction and correction in our lives. And especially for those parents who were believers, for they also faithfully attempted to build the same godly qualities that our Heavenly Father attempts to build into our lives.
SO GO WITH GOD for He above all of mankind has attempted to guide us into all truth. Yes, we today find ourselves reading His words and recognize the eternal value and guidance that come from Him. As we meditate on His instruction our hearts are drawn to these words due to the fact that they are absolute truth and they have at their very source every intention to draw us to strength, health, blessing, and stability. As we remember the words of Psalm 100:2 which said, "We worship the Lord with gladness." For surely our praises directed to Him are well deserved.
