"My soul shall make her boast in the LORD: the humble shall hear and be glad.

O magnify the LORD with me, and let us exalt his name together.” Psalm 34:2,3

How good that we can encourage others by praise, helping them to also praise, as we lead the way in extolling God.

It is so good to look through the purifying leans of God’s Word and to keep up the shield of faith with words of praise.

And it is also good to thank God that He is teaching us to praise in all, even though we are slow learners!

Prayer: “Lord, help me to remember

in each disappointment, difficulty and discomfort,

as well as in the positive and pleasant, to respond with praise, surrendering to the Truth of your being God,

the final Authority, the all wise One.

Help me to affirm my trust in you

by praising when I feel like complaining,

by giving thanks when I feel like rebelling.

May you be exalted in my life through praise and thanksgiving today

so those around me may be encouraged to praise also. Amen.”
