BV: Starting With Praise

I'm starting a new endeavor with this blog.  My goal is to do daily "blogvotionals" (Monday through Friday).  They will be shorter than my usual posts (which I plan to continue writing once a week).  My hope is that these blogvotionals will be a time-friendly way to turn our hearts and minds to Christ.  To make them easier to receive on a daily basis you can click on the "Subscribe by email" link on the left.  The daily posts will be automatically sent to your email address.  You won't have to go searching for them.  I'm starting off with a simple praise from the Bible.  May 2011 be a blessed year as we look to God and thank Him for our lives, His love and our salvation.

Psalm 100

Shout for joy to the Lord, all the earth.

Worship the Lord with gladness;

come before him with joyful songs.

Know that the Lord is God.

It is He who made us, and we are His;

we are His people, the sheep of His pasture.

Enter His gates with thanksgiving

and His courts with praise;

give thanks to Him and praise His name.

For the Lord is good and His love endures forever;

His faithfulness continues through all generations.

Encouragement for the day:  Take a moment to reflect on the greatness of God.  Take another moment to let Him know how great you think He is.

Question of the day:  What does "praising God" mean to you?
