37- Miracles

God has been doing so many cool things in my life lately. The other night my sisters and I randomly got to talk to these 2 women who are doing awesome things for the kingdom! We talked for an hour and a half and it was obvious by all God arranged our paths. Last night God really encouraged me through some stuff. Yesterday I was looking for my passport for a long time. Today, as I was trying to spend time with God, my mind wondered or whatever, but then He showed me right where to look. I found my passport.
God is soo good.
LORD YOU ARE GOOD AND YOUR MERCY ENDURES FOREVER!!!
He is Victorious! There is no-one like HIM

32- Praise

How would you define praise?
When it comes down to real life, what is it really?
Some of my thoughts...
I think praise is admitting/confessing/declaring something that is already true. It is seeing, agreeing, and responding to something valuable. Praising God is seeing something worthy in Him and telling Him that truth. For me, part of praise is closely linked with gratitude. Oh how I am grateful for God pulling me out of the pit. Thank You Lord for your generous mercy that saved my life. You are so good to me Lord.
The word appraisal came to mind the other day. To attribute value.
The other side of praise is just seeing His awesomeness and worshipping in wonder.
I want to recognize His goodness to me and wonder at His majesty.
Throughout my schedule, I want to see Him in all things and praise Him for who He is.
