Thursday Thought -- December 13, 2012


Good Morning Friends,

“Praise the LORD.

Praise the LORD from the heavens, praise him in the heights above.

Praise him, all his angels, praise him, all his heavenly hosts.

Praise him, sun and moon, praise him, all you shining stars.

Praise him, you highest heavens and you waters above the skies.

Let them praise the name of the LORD, for he commanded and they were created.

He set them in place for ever and ever; he gave a decree that will never pass away.

Praise the LORD from the earth, you great sea creatures and all ocean depths, lightning and hail, snow and clouds, stormy winds that do his bidding, you mountains and all hills, fruit trees and all cedars, wild animals and all cattle, small creatures and flying birds, kings of the earth and all nations, you princes and all rulers on earth, young men and maidens, old men and children.

Let them praise the name of the LORD, for his name alone is exalted; his splendor is above the earth and the heavens.

He has raised up for his people a horn, the praise of all his saints, of Israel, the people close to his heart.

Praise the LORD.”  (Psalm 148)

It doesn’t take a rocket scientist to get the point of this Psalm.  God is worthy of praise!  So give it to Him!  Let Him know how much you love Him.  Tell Him how great you recognize Him to be.  Let Him know what you think of His creation.  Mention the awe you feel at His grace.

Give Him praise.  He deserves it.  He desires it.  He delights in it.

Praise the Lord.

His, by Grace,

Steve
