May 19, Daily Scripture

"It is good to give thanks to the Lord, to sing praises to the Most High. It is good to proclaim your unfailing love in the morning, your faithfulness in the evening, accompanied by the ten-stringed harp and the melody of the lyre. You thrill me, Lord, with all that you have done for me! I sing for joy because of what you have done. O Lord what great works you do! And how deep are your thoughts."
        - Psalm 92:1-5

Hey guys I'm just going to put a thought in your head, but let God tell you what He wants to out of these verses.  Remember Wade's sermon on Sunday? Remember what he was saying about Christians being "good".  I'm not saying it's bad to be good, its just bad to only try to be good.  (I hope that makes sense) This first part of Psalm 92 is talking about how it is very good to praise God all day long and be thankful for what He has done, but what I want to add is, don't let that be all you do.  Worshiping God is more than just singing Him praises and being thankful.  As Romans 12 says, offer your bodies as living sacrifices to God and that is your spiritual act of worship.  So may we all be good in our thankfulness to God and holy in the way we live our lives.
