PRAISE HIS HOLY NAME!

“SING TO THE LORD, ALL YOU GODLY ONES! PRAISE HIS HOLY NAME. FOR HIS ANGER LASTS ONLY A MOMENT, BUT HIS FAVOR LASTS A LIFETIME! WEEPING MAY LAST THROUGH THE NIGHT BUT JOY COMES WITH THE MORNING.” PSALM 30:4 AND 5

It is so important to worship and praise our Lord even in the darkest of times. As human beings living upon this earth our Lord knows quite well that we make mistakes in life. When we do things that we know we shouldn’t do our God is not pleased with us. However, scriptures show us that his anger is only temporary and lasts only for a short moment. But if we continue to go to him in praise and worship, and not run away from him, he will forgive us. He loves us through it all. Even though you and I have a hard time forgiving and forgetting, our God in heaven does not. We must keep him close to us throughout each day. Even when we are totally involved in our daily plans, we need to include the Lord. We should think of him and talk to him. He is always close to us and lives inside of us through his precious Holy Spirit. He will give us directions and help us to seek out and stay on the path he has prepared for us. It is when we don’t include him in our lives that we stray into trouble. Stay close and never forget his presence! PRAISE THE LORD IN ALL THINGS!
