Praise In the Presence of GodSample
A Holy Largess
How easily we succumb to judging and condemning. But by letting the truth of God’s Word and the presence of Jesus work in us to stretch the fabric of our souls, a largeness of life will open. First it will open up in us, then its bounty can open out through us.
So many things change when we grow in the true spirit of giving, that is, in the “spirit of God’s release.” The bitterness of criticism, the pettiness of judging, the quickness to condemn, and the slowness to forgive—all can be crowded out by a holy largess of loving and giving.

About this Plan
Pastor Jack Hayford points the way to the life-changing pathway of praise. No matter how you feel, praise will shape what your experiences will become. When doubts come, praise God that His Word will never fail you. When fears taunt, praise God that His presence never leaves you. When questions arise, praise God that His wisdom holds every answer. Praise leads you to the One who assures peace beyond strife, hope beyond trial, joy beyond sorrow, and life beyond all.
