Proverbs 23:7
As a man thinketh in his heart so is he.

It is so easy to get caught up in the stresses
Of the day and complain. If we are not careful
That can become a way of life. When this happens
There is very little joy to be found.
Our life becomes what we think about.

It is important to give praise in all things.
When we go through difficult times and they will come,
Instead of becoming discouraged and angry.
We need to give praise. There is a lesson in the situation.
We may not see it for a while but when the hurdle
Is over we can look back and see what God has
Helped us accomplish and it was for our own good.

God said in all things give thanks and praise for
That pleases Him. God is ahead, above, below,
And behind us. He knows and sees all things.
Knowing this it is easy to trust and praise Him
For we know He is in control.

All our strength and wisdom comes from the Lord.
We can trust, lean on and ask for guidance from Him.
The Lord is our helper and is always nearby.
We don't even have to make a phone call.
He is there and ready to help.

For that security we can praise Him.
When we are in a continuous state of praise,
We will always be at peace for we know
He will give a solution or show us how to take care of it.
Praise Him in all things Praise Him.

Psalms 117
O Praise the Lord, all ye nations praise him,
all ye nations: and all ye people.
For his merciful kindness is great toward us:
and truth of the Lord endureth forever.
Praise ye the Lord.
