This morning I heard my daughter wake up and come down the hallway. She was singing at the top of her lungs, this is pretty normal for her. But when I realized what she was singing I had to stop and smile: "My God is so big, so strong and so mighty..."
I'm not much of a morning person, but I'm a mom so I get up and deal with morning anyway. I can't remember a day in recent history where I got out of bed and starting singing praises to God. What a great, gentle reminder her beautiful singing was for me this morning. Each day is a blessing and even when I don't feel like it - I need to praise God.
Several years ago after suffering a miscarriage I had some friends from church over. We found this quote and loved it. I haven't looked at it again until recently and was reminded again how great these words are:
Heavenly Father,
I thank and praise you for all the blessings you bestow on me. May the words of my mouth and the meditations of my heart bless your name.
Amen
Love you and that little praising angel!
