Today's Verse: Psalm 34:1

Monday, October 1, 1945

I will extol the Lord at all times; his praise will always be on my lips.
— Psalm 34:1

Thoughts on Today's Verse...

One way to keep our life on track and our hearts surrendered to the will and work of God is to praise our glorious Lord continually. Let's put our praise for God on our lips with song and memorized Scripture. Let's tell his wonderful and great deeds to our children, grandchildren, and friends. Let's give him thanks for all that he has done for us. Just as surely as he is with us always (see Ps. 139), let's praise him always.

My Prayer...

Almighty God and eternal and loving Father, I praise you for your great might and incredible creativity displayed in your creation. I marvel at your vastness and incomprehensible glory revealed in the great expanse of the heavens. Thank you for your power, mercy, faithfulness, and grace demonstrated by your care for your people and the sending of your Son as you promised. You are wonderful. You are awesome. You are majestic. Thank you for loving me. In Jesus' name. Amen.
