Summary: Sarah looks at the 2nd of 4 assigned Lectionary readings for the 3rd Sunday of Easter. Psalm 116:1-4, 12-19 are part of a Psalm of Thanksgiving. The Psalmist tells of the trials and afflictions endured and how God was there throughout, aiding and guiding. The Psalm (or song) is the author's way of giving thanks to God for that presence.
