 PRAISING HIM
Today's reading: Ezra 1-5

"With praise and thanks, they sang this song to the Lord: He is so good! His faithful love for Israel endures forever! Then all the people gave a great shout, praising the Lord because the foundation of the Lord's Temple had been laid." Ezra 3:11 NLT

With their work clothes still on.

With raised sweaty, dirty hands.

With still a major uncompleted task lying ahead of them.

They praised God. Stopped everything they were doing and praised God. Grabbed the praise team and 'had church' over how good and loving and gracious God was to them.

A lesson for me this morning.

-To praise Him for what He is doing behind the scenes.

-To thank Him for doing anything at all for a wretch like me.

-To honor Him for knowing just what I need, when I need it, in what way I need it to arrive.

-To offer my appreciation to Him for having allowed me to the abilities and provision to get to where I am today.

He is so good! His faithful love for Malinda endures forever!
