Devotion – 7/1/2020

I will praise You, O Lord, among the peoples, and I will sing praises to You among the nations. For Your mercy is great above the heavens, and Your truth reaches to the clouds….”
~ Psalm 108:3-4

 
A good friend of mine, and a fellow pastor had told me recently that they started getting up in the morning and before doing anything else – would take a few minutes to pray and thank God for the new day with an attitude of gratitude.  No matter what – just get up and say a prayer thanking God for the new day.
 
I started doing this, and it has helped me more than I can express these past few days.
 
I’d like to invite you to join me in this new routine for our mornings, or at anytime during the day – stop what you’re doing and just thank God for the new day.  My prayer for all of us is – as the day progresses, we will be able to appreciate the little things as much as the biggest blessings.  Singing praises to God sets our spirit in line with God’s Holy Spirit and makes each day better.
 
“Behold, I make all things new” – Jesus ( Revelation 21:5 )
 
God be with you!
~ Pastor Denise
