The LORD is my strength and my shield; my heart trusts in him, and he helps me. My heart leaps for joy, and with my song I praise him. Psalm 28: 7 NIV

God longs for us to receive His strength, so we will welcome peaceful reassurance and acknowledge who is working in our days. He fills us with desire to bless Him with a grateful heart. He covers us in courage when circumstances cause us to suffer. 

God IS working in our days! If we truly believe, we will respond in thanks; no matter what the circumstance. We will never know for sure what God has planned for our lives, but we will find HOPE to remember who's in charge of ALL things.  

When we offer praise for mercy not yet received, God blesses us! He strengthens the heart of our faithfulness and helps us remember we are held by our TRUST. He hears the prayers of our hearts and calms the weary side of worry.

The LORD is our strength and our shield. He will lead us to a song of praise and wait for us to honor Him. It won’t matter how we choose to make a joyful noise. God will be blessed by our offering of love. And, we will glorify Him with  our gladness. 

Dear God, Thank you for Your everlasting love. We will remember who’s in charge of our days. Forgive us when we forget to praise YOU in ALL things. Strengthen the heart of our love, as we begin each prayer with GRATEFUL praise. Amen
