What a glorious day to sing praises to our God for His graciousness unto us.  His lovingkindness and tender mercies are ever toward those who are His own.  As the Apostle Paul says in Romans,

"Who shall separate us from the love of Christ?  Shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril or sword?
But in all these things we overwhelmingly conquer through Him who loved us.
For I am convinced that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor things present, nor things to come, nor powers, nor height, nor depth, nor any other created things, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord."  Vs. 35, 37-39

"How blessed is the  man who has made the Lord his trust,
 And has not turned to the proud, nor to those who lapse into falsehood.
 Many, O Lord my God, are the wonders which Thou has done,
 And Thy thoughts toward us;
 There is none to compare with Thee;
 If I would declare and speak of them,
 They would be too numberous to count."  Psalm 40:4-5 

With these things in mind let's let the words of the Psalmist fill our hearts and voices as we praise and honor the only One who is worthy of our worship.  How very lovely and beautiful is our God and worthy to be praised!

"I will extol Thee, my God, O King;
 And I will bless Thy name forever and ever.
 Every day I will bless Thee,
 And I will praise Thy name forever and ever.
 Great is the Lord, and highly to be praised;
 And His greatness is unsearchable.
 One generation shall praise Thy works to another,
 And shall declare Thy mighty acts.
 On the glorious splendor of Thy majesty;
 And on Thy wonderful works, I will meditate.
 And men shall speak of the power of Thine awesome acts;
 And I will tell of Thy greatness.
 They shall eagerly utter the memory of Thine abundant goodness,
 And shall shout joyfully of Thy righteousness.  
 My mouth will speak the praise of the Lord;
 And all flesh will bless His holy name forever and ever."  Palm 145:1-7, 21
Amen!!
