The Grands Letter

Dear Grands,

Psalm 145:1-3, “I Will extol Thee, my God, O King; And I will bless

Thy name forever and ever. 2 Every day I will bless Thee, And I will

praise Thy name forever and ever. 3 Great is the LORD, and highly

to be praised; And His greatness is unsearchable.”

We always look to the LORD when we are in trouble; but do we

ever just praise Him? David has nothing in mind here except to

just praise the LORD. To extol is to lift up, to hold is high esteem.

It is to praise the LORD. He has given you another day to live! He

has provided everything necessary for life and its enjoyment.

Why should we becloud our minds with troubling things? He wipes

away trouble and devastation. He is worthy of our praise, not only

for today, but for tomorrow and throughout the extent of our lives.

Whatever befalls us, He is always there. He loves and cares for us

in every conceivable situation. How great is He? “His greatness is

unsearchable!” Our minds will not –cannot—begin to embrace

His greatness! Keep Him in mind throughout this day. Let everything

that you encounter cause you to praise Him! He is working for your

benefit, for you well-being. Praise the LORD!

Only the LORD do we love more than we love you,
