“Let the name of the Lord be praised,
Both now and forevermore.
From the rising of the sun to the place where it sets,
The name of the Lord is to be praised.” - (Psalm 113:2-3)
When are we to praise the Lord? Just on Sunday mornings? Just when good things happen to us? Of course not! We should praise Him all the time!
…in the middle of the week, when we can’t wait for the weekend to get here
…when we get good news
…when we are hurt or upset
…when we see His hand at work in our lives
…when we don’t understand what He’s doing
…the name of the Lord is to be praised!
Where are we to praise the Lord? When we’re at church? When we’re around other Christians? Of course not! From where the sun rises to where it sets, we should praise Him wherever we are!
…when we’re at home with our family
…when we’re alone
…when we’re in the break room at work
…when we’re at the gas station or grocery store
…when we go overseas on a missions trip (or support those who go)
…the name of the Lord is to be praised!
In Christ,
Amy Smith
