SACRIFICE OF PRAISE

PSALM 28:7 (ABP)
I trust GOD with all my heart.
He helps me, filling my heart with joy.
I'm so thankful!


HEBREWS 13:15 (CEV)
Our sacrifice is to keep offering praise to God in the name of Jesus.

SUMMARY SENTENCE
Keep on joyfully praising God.

DAILY FODDER
What is your favorite way to praise God? 

PRAYER
Glorious God, you are worthy of all praise! I confess that I let life drag me down rather than prompt me to praise. If you'll help me stay focused, God, I'll turn my life into an ongoing sacrifice of praise. In the name of Jesus, I pray and praise. Amen. 

THE LORD’S PRAYER (ABP)
Our Father in Heaven,
     we hold your name in the highest regard.
Please come and establish your reign here on earth
     so that everything that happens here will align
     with what is happening in heaven.
Give us enough food for today.
Forgive us our wrongdoing,
     and we’ll forgive those who wronged us.
Shield us from the trials and temptations that come our way.
Lastly, we pray that you will protect us from all forms of evil. 
Amen.
