The soul has a natural tendency toward spiritual amnesia, forgetting God's goodness while clinging to pain and disappointment. David's strategy in Psalm 103 reveals that gratitude isn't just a reaction but a weapon against forgetfulness. He commands his soul to bless the Lord regardless of feelings, demonstrating that grateful souls aren't born but trained. By creating a spiritual highlight reel of God's specific benefits - forgiveness, healing, redemption, love, and satisfaction - we can combat spiritual forgetfulness. When we focus on God's faithfulness rather than our circumstances, gratitude transforms our perspective and renews our strength like the eagle.
