Every Day


“I will extol You, my God, O King;
and I will bless Your name
forever and ever. Every day I will
bless You, and I will praise Your name
forever and ever.  Great is the Lord,
and greatly to be praised; and His
greatness is unsearchable.”
     Psalm 145:1-3 (NKJV)

It is easy to praise God when time are good, when our lives are working well.  But when we’re going through a situation we don’t understand, when we’re hit with disappointments, when we experience heartache, we can sometimes find it hard to bless God as we should.  Yet He is always worthy of glory and praise.  Our joy is in the Lord at all times, even in the darkest days. 

My heart is still broken over a relationship with someone I dearly love that became estranged years ago. There is no sign of any healing on the horizon, yet I praise God in this trial.  Through it, He is teaching me to trust Him and strengthening my faith. God has been so faithful, so steadfast.  He wipes away my tears and comforts me. He is always there for me to lean on. He guides me and loves me and provides for me so well.

If we can praise God on the mountain top, we can praise Him in the valleys.  He never changes.  He is always faithful, always worthy.  Every day.
