and extol him with music and song.
The Psalmist begins with a call to sing for joy to the Lord, whom he called the Rock of Salvation. He reminds us how great our God is. He tells us to bow before our Creator and to listen for His voice.
As I prayed this morning, I remembered all the concerns I have. I prayed for the usual groups and persons who are in need. Then it occurred to me that I rarely praise God, outside of the parts of The Lord's Prayer, which I recite daily. Usually I focus on forgiveness for myself and others even when praying that. The use of praise, especially praise songs, is a practice I should revive.
Prayer: Lord, You are Almighty. You have all of creation in Your hands. I give thanks for all the ways You make my life better. I'm especially grateful for the gift of faith, which helps me to see You in my life.
Amen
