Shout for joy to the Lord, all the earth.
Worship the Lord with gladness;
come before Him with joyful songs.
Know that the Lord is God.
It is He who made us, and we are His.
We are His people, the sheep of His pasture.
Enter His gates with thanksgiving and
His courts with praise.
Give thanks to Him and praise His name.
For the Lord is good and His love endures forever.
His faithfulness continues through all generations.
I love this. I looked up thanks in my trusty thesaurus:to express gratitude, grateful, obliged, indebted to, appreciation, acknowledgement to, tender thanks to, bless.
Then, I looked up praise: good words, compliments, approval, acclaim, regard, respect, esteem, tribute, extol, exalt, revere, celebrate
Those are amazing words to describe how we are to approach God. When was the last time you just told Him "thank you" ? I believe that God is a happy God, otherwise it would not be the Joy of the Lord being our strength.
God is good. He loves us so much. Sit with Him today and just love Him and tell Him thanks.
Think about that......
