I will thank You
in the great congregation.
In the mighty throng,
I will praise You.
Psalm 35. 18
God has given each of us
stories
of His faithfulness and glory,
not to keep to ourselves,
but to share
and allow them to multiply.
Mary Oliver, a poet, once wrote:
Pay attention.
Be astonished.
Tell about it.
That's the stuff of
being a witness.
If we see something,
say something.
When was the last time
we did that,
thanking God
or praising Him
in the presence of others?
Or let thanks and praise sing
in the quietness of our hearts?
O LORD,
Enlarge our hearts and
vocabulary
that we may praise
and thank You for
Who You are,
not just for what You do.
Open our eyes today
to Your wonders,
not just noticing
what You have placed
all around us,
but thanking You for it,
and unable to wait
to tell
someone else.
