in
the Grenevan Psalter, 1551
Praise God from who all blessings flow,
God is the source of ALL our blessings. Every good thing
that happens in our lives has its beginning with Him. Our Father leads us
through tough times to the outcome He has for us.
Praise Him, all creatures here below.
In Psalm 150:6 we read that all who have breath are to
praise Him. As I initially wrote this, I saw the evidence of sunshine peeking
through the clouds. The temperature had dropped overnight but I could still
praise the LORD for the partly sunny sky.
Praise Him above, ye heavenly host
The psalmist tells the angels to praise God. Should we
not also praise Him?
Praise Him, the Father, Son, and Holy Ghost.
This thought gives us pause as we consider the three
forms of the Godhead. God the Father is our creator. God the Son is our Savior.
God the Holy Ghost (Spirit) is our sustainer.
We must praise God for all He does for us, for all He
will do for us, and for all He has done for us. When we praise God, we thank
Him.
If some people only knew the great joy they could receive if they'd praise His Holy Name!
ReplyDeleteGod Bless!
Thank you for your thought.
Delete'When we praise God, we thank Him', so true Cecelia. I am praying for you this week!
ReplyDeleteThank you, I got home Wednesday around 4:00 P. M. I am still moving slow. Surgeon didn't have to do all that she thought.
DeleteI guess you must have posted this last night. I've been thinking about you all day today and praying all is well. I hope to hear from you as soon as you are able. God is with you, so we need not be afraid. But we can still pray! God bless you dear friend.
