A heart full of praise!


"Therefore by Him let us continually offer the sacrifice of praise to God, that is, the fruit of our lips, giving thanks to His name." Hebrews 13:15

When does praise to God become a sacrifice? It is very convenient to praise God when we are comfortable and things seem to be going our way. But what happens when we are stuck in a difficult trial or a painful circumstance? Do we still continue to praise God??

When we choose to rise above our difficult circumstances and praise God, it becomes a sacrifice, a fruit of our lips which is very precious in our Father's sight. Don't let your heart be troubled, God is very near, a ever present help in times of trouble. Our God is worthy of our praise. Continue to thank Him for all the benefits He so generously bestows.....Giving thanks is the best antidote to a complaining spirit!!!
