Psalm 148
Praise the Lord!
Praise the Lord from the heavens;
Praise the Lord from the heavens;
praise Him in the heights!
2 Praise Him, all His angels;
praise Him, all His hosts!
3 Praise Him, sun and moon,
praise Him, all you shining stars!
4 Praise Him, you highest heavens,
and you waters above the heavens!
5 Let them praise the name of the Lord!
For He commanded and they were created.
6 And He established them forever and ever;
7 Praise the Lord from the earth,
you great sea creatures and all deeps,
8 fire and hail, snow and mist,
9 Mountains and all hills,
fruit trees and all cedars!
10 Beasts and all livestock,
creeping things and flying birds!
11 Kings of the earth and all peoples,
princes and all rulers of the earth!
12 Young men and maidens together,
13 Let them praise the name of the Lord,
for His name alone is exalted;
His majesty is above earth and heaven.
14 He has raised up a horn for His people,
praise for all His saints,
for the people of Israel who are near to Him.
Praise the Lord!
Today, was, to be polite,
challenging in many, many directions.
Interesting and hopeful.
With Downhearted moments.
The Christmas Season has started with Thanksgiving.
So many places to go and allow for
So many places to go and allow for
suddenly, incredible
Traffic.
And in this travel, we ran into a longtime,
dear friend, and poured out to her
how challenging this year has been.
She told us, it is the Pandemic and the temperature.
Their beloved, beloved, beloved adult child
has chosen to run away as an adult.
Hearing only within a space of years.
The other child had the Pandemic era upon them
in all types of stress.
Another friend
has seen an adult child
who has been so successful
and has gone forth
to this life without
many visits or calls.
We all have a time of stress,
either upon us,
or upon our loved ones.
What shall we say for
Thanksgiving?
Thank You, Abba, Father,
I woke up today
and had my ... health...
I love the people You have given me...
The ability to reach up, Rise up
and go forth.
And the ability to have another day,
another year,
the ability to have Hope. Love.
Peace within as Hope
Grows.
We pray strongly
and fiercely for
our Children of all ages.
This is a Season of Need for Children
of All Ages.
Jesus safeguard our families,
who don't even always know
You will Help.
Help us to be both
respected shelter
and cause for Joy.
And in this Hope
Jesus Christ brings us
we will find
Joy
Love
and Peace.
The finding of the blessings
the day brings.
Thanksgiving,
we will find in this shared
time of difficulty,
more empathy,
more kindness
and an upbuilding of the
Children of God.
We will choose
to be Gracious.
Find more
Heaven on earth,
Bring more Heaven on earth.
The Blessings of the Day
bringing more than
merely sufficient
in our hearts.
We pray for Israel
Peace.
We pray for Ukraine
Peace.
Surround Ukraine with
Help in their Neighbors
as well.
We pray for the
return of Middle East Peace.
And we pray for this
Nation
in the Highest Name of Jesus Christ.
Bless and Cover
the Nations asking for Your Help.
To Your Glory.
In the Name of Jesus Christ,
Your Son.
Amen.
