blessing the Lord

Wednesday, October 21, 2026 (4:36 a.m.)

Beautiful morning Lord,

Thank You. Praise You.

♪We got dust on our Bibles, brand-new iPhones

No wonder why we feel this way♪

(Dusty Bibles)

Thank You Father. Yes. Thank You.

The Message for Psalm 100:4. “Enter with the password: ‘Thank You!’ Make yourself at home, talking praise. Thank Him. Worship Him.” Can our life with You really be that easy?

“Thank Him. Worship Him.”

(5:13 a.m.)

It reads so simply! Evangelical Heritage Version expands on it just a little. And the next thing I know I’m singing a different song.

“Give thanks to Him and bless His name.”

You absolutely astound me Lord! I’m never sure if the songs come before the Bible verse. Oh how I delight when they come together! Thank You.

Yes. Thank You that ♪Bless the Lord, O my soul, O my soul Worship His holy name Sing like never before, O my soul I’ll worship Your holy name♪ takes me straight to wondering. How do we bless You?

A thesaurus says: praise, worship, glorify, honor, exalt, adore… Teach me more Dear Lord.

♪The sun comes up, it’s a new day dawning

It’s time to sing Your song again

Whatever may pass and whatever lies before me

Let me be singing when the evening comes♪

One writer (C.A. Keller) said that blessing You is an “expression of praising thankfulness… exclamation of gratitude and admiration."

John Piper added, “... to bless God means to recognize His great richness, strength, and gracious bounty and to express our gratitude and delight in seeing and experiencing it.”

Thank You Father for the blessings You continuously provide us. Empower and embolden me in using them well.

Do all You must dear Lord that I serve and represent You as You know is best. I love, need, trust and want You. Thank You. Praise You. Amen.
