“Praise the Lord.  Praise God in his sanctuary; praise him in his mighty heavens.  Praise him for his acts of power; praise him for is surpassing greatness.  Praise him with the sounding of the trumpet, praise him with the harp and lyre, praise him with tambourine and dancing, praise him with the strings and flute, praise him with the clash of cymbals, praise him with resounding cymbals.  Let everything that has breath praise the Lord.  Praise the Lord.”

-Psalm 150

Let everything that has breath praise the Lord!  The Lord is worthy of all our praise!  We have much to praise him for!  The Lord richly blesses us in so many ways – every single day!  We are blessed just to be alive – just to have the breath of life in our lungs breathed into us by the Lord God Almighty so that we can use that very same breath to praise him all the more for everything that he has done for us!  We are blessed by the Lord to have family, loved ones,  relatives, and friends to support us when we need someone to talk to or need financial assistance.  We are blessed by the Lord to have a warm place to sleep every night, clothes to wear, food to eat, and clean water to drink and wash with.  We are blessed by the Lord to have great health and to be able to have a job so that we can be blessed with an income to afford all the things we need.  We are even more blessed by the Lord to be able to make an income where we not only can afford all the things we need, but we can also afford to give to other people who are in need – who do not have all these things- and who desperately need to be blessed by someone like you!  Above all, let us praise the Lord for who he is, for paying the ultimate price for us, and wiping all our sins away so that we can one day live eternally with him in Heaven.  Praise the Lord!!!
