To Know Him Is To Praise Him

There are so many reasons to praise the Lord. Sometime when I am contemplating the greatness of the Lord I really begin to feel rather selfish because I notice all of the many, many things that He does are for me. Perhaps one of the most amazing things about God is that He chooses to even let mankind know about Himself at all. After all, if it wasn't for the revelation of God in His Word, no one would know anything of any substance about Him at all. Oh, we would still have a hunger for Him and that gnawing emptiness without really knowing Him. We would realize certain things about His attributes displayed in the world around us that we couldn't really explain or adequately define. However, as far as actually knowing Him or the many attributes of His amazing character, we would be at a complete & total loss. And what a tremendous loss it would be. So today I just want to say one more time, "Praise the Lord!"
Thank You Lord for revealing Yourself to me in Your Word. Thank you for being full of goodness, truth & mercy. Thank you for being able to communicate with spiritually dead people; for paying the price; & making us spiritually alive again so we can truly know You & communicate with You forever and ever. Blessed be the Name of the Lord!!
