Rejoice Always

PRAYER FOR TODAY

Almighty God, all the earth worships You and sings praises to You; they sing praises to Your name (Psalm 66:4). Your glory reigns forever and ever.

Admittedly, there are more times than we care to count when we grumble and complain when we should be thankful and full of praise. Forgive us for those times, and remind us through Your creation that You alone are worthy of our attention and worship. Cause us to rejoice as we remember Your faithfulness; may our lips and actions bring glory to Your name.

For those who are suffering today, please give them peace. We know that the sufferings of this present time are not worth comparing with the glory that is to be revealed to us (Romans 8:18). After we have suffered a little while, You who have called us to Your eternal glory in Christ will restore, confirm, strengthen, and establish us (1 Peter 5:10). Thank You for this incredible promise.

ONE QUESTION

Am I practicing gratitude and praise daily, or do I tend to spend more time grumbling and complaining?
