Praising

Let’s come before him with thanks! Let’s shout songs of joy to him! The Lord is a great God, the great king over all other gods. ~ Psalm 95:2–3a (CEB)

God is the greatest King of all. He is the most powerful Lord of all. God is the only one who can’t die. He lives in light that no one can get close to. No one has seen him. No one can see him. Honor and power belong to him forever. Amen. ~ 1 Timothy 6:15b–16 (NIRV)
You are the King of all Glory! You have no peers. No one and nothing is like you. You go on forever. And I take comfort in your position and character. I'm fickle. I'm always changing my mind and failing to live faithfully. But you... You are so faithful. Honor and power belong to you forever -- including today. I'm going to look for ways today to shout songs of joy to you. You deserve it -- each and every word of praise. Amen.
