Oh Praise Him

I Chronicles 16:8-9 "Give thanks to the Lord, call on his name; make known among the nations what he has done. Sing to him , sing praise to him, tell of all his wonderful acts."

Sometimes the Lord just says, Praise me........that is what He is saying to me now in the stillness of my morning. We have our prayer lists and our hearts full of compassion and love for others and what He just wants is praise from the depths of our souls. To stand in awe of Him, just because He's God. Not because of what He's done for us today, but just because HE is GOD.

Last night, I layed down to sleep and I could not get there. My mind was to full of BUT LORD........And He gave me rest, and he will give you rest today as well. There is so much rest to be found in worship. Renewing of the mind, body and spirit......oh that sounds a little not southern baptist, but you know my heart.

I am very nervous to go into work this morning.......this will be the first time I've worked since the not so great day the other day. And yes, I could totally work myself up into a frizzy, but I'm not..........I will Sing to my God, I praise Him with my heart, and I will worship Him through my actions........because He is God. I'm writing this verse on a sticky note and placing it in my pocket this morning. Listen to this song with my soul this morning.........it will start your day off pretty great!!! Worship HIM with me now..........I love you all, I'm praying for each of you...........

Hey, Nicki! Love this post...praise & worship have been on my mind much the past month, I mean more than normal...this is great! I am praying for you as I read this! I thought of this scripture for you today:

2 Corinthians 2:14
But thanks be to God, Who in Christ always leads us in triumph [as trophies of Christ's victory] and through us spreads and makes evident the fragrance of the knowledge of God everywhere,


Well, I can't add anything to that!

I didn't see your romance post, but you were probably busy! I will check later!

God bless!
Maria

I am just getting around. But I will go ahead and ask Him to bless your heart today--after all He is not limited to time so He knew I would pray right now.
Thank about that one and let it blow your mind with possibilities.
