A Simple Praise

Good Morning!

Psalm 117 (English Standard Version)
The LORD’s Faithfulness Endures Forever
1 Praise the LORD, all nations!
Extol him, all peoples!
2For great is his steadfast love toward us,
and the faithfulness of the LORD endures forever.
Praise the LORD!

There you have it. The shortest of the Psalms and yet… still with a message of power.

Praise the Lord … how often do we do this? I sometimes wonder which would win out – our praise of the Lord or the use of His name in vain. Praising involves recognition of the greatness of God and the measure of His provision for each one of us. Praising God involves a gratitude attitude.

ALL NATIONS … every person who lives and breathes should be praising God for setting this place we call Earth into the very proper place that we as humans might thrive. Do we not realize how much impact a centimeter might make on humankind?

Extol Him, all peoples. Synonyms are: praise, exalt, commend, admire, worship. Is God not entitled to any one of these? Of course, He is.

For great is His steadfast loves towards us … God not only loves us supremely – His love never wavers. We have a rock to which we can cling even in the worst of times.

And the faithfulness of the Lord endures forever. Forever faithful – forever steadfast. Something we can count on each and every day of our lives. So, again – Praise the Lord
