It is easy to praise God when things are going good, we have a job, a home, our health and so on. But a true disciple of Christ praises God at all times. If Christ is ruling our lives then we praise God when there is hurt, fear, anger and loss. A sister in Christ is dying of cancer and though she is grieving and possibly a little scared, she is raising her hands to heaven and praising God! When I think of her, I don't think so much about all the things she has done, but about her love of Christ and praising Him in the storm. When the hurt, fear, anger and loss come, we can still feel all those things, but that is when it is most important for us to keep our eyes on God and lift our hands in praise to Him. Show God you love Him, raise your hands in praise today and everyday!
Psalm 146:2 NIV
2 I will praise the Lord all my life; I will sing praise to my God as long as I live.
