Praise the Lord!.<strong> Psalm 117:1-2<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>What is your response to the age old question \u2013 what is life? This short psalm says so much about what life is all about. The key is your relationship with God. You should \u2018praise\u2019 and \u2018praise\u2019 the Lord (v.1) because of his great \u2018love\u2019 for you and \u2018faithfulness\u2019 towards you (v.2). The psalmist gives us a beautiful summary of God\u2019s attitude to you, and what your attitude to him should be.<\/p>\n<p>Gratitude overflows from a heart that brings to remembrance all the benefits of knowing and belonging to God. A grateful heart not only praises God for what He does but also knows that all we are is only because of all He is.<\/p>\n<p>My exhortation to you today is simple but life changing. Life is all about worshipping God. In this world you will have trials \u2013 expect them \u2013 but don\u2019t let them distract or inhibit you from praising God. He is all knowing. He is worthy. He is good. He has compassion. He has showered each of us with more benefits than we realize. A heart that knows this is overflowing with praise. Let all that I am praise the Lord.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Prayer for today<\/strong>: <em>Father God, I praise You because You are worthy and You have been so, so good to me. Thank You for Your unconditional love.
