It causes my heart to rejoice thanking God for all His goodness. It is His love that carried us through. It is His hand that clothed us each day. It is with His eyes He guided us. It is His word that preserved us. It is from His riches in glory He supplied all our needs. It is His blood that protected us from many dangers. Oh! Its all because of Him we are what we are today.

How privileged should we be to have a God who does everything that He can just to keep us happy! Even if we thank Him for eternity it would not be sufficient for all that He has done for us. But when this big God does so much to keep us happy, shouldn't we do something to make Him happy in return?

But wait! What can make "God" happy? The world and everything that is in it is His and what can we mortals offer Him?

Let's turn the pages of our Bible to Psalm 147:10,11...

His pleasure is not in the strength of the horse,
nor his delight in the legs of a man; the LORD delights in those who fear him,
who put their hope in his unfailing love.

All that this big God delights in is those who fear Him and put their hope in His unfailing love. Shouldn't it be our desire and duty to let the God who died for us delight?

Let's say this small prayer with all our hearts,

O help me, Lord, to show respect,
To always honor You;
And may I bring You highest praise
In everything I do.

Amen!
