"We bring the sacrifice of praise!" Those are the words to a chorus that was popular some years back, but it's based on the scripture found in Hebrews 13:15 (AMPC)"Through Him, therefore, let us constantly and at all times, offer up to God a sacrifice of praise, which is the fruit of lips that thankfully acknowledge and confess and glorify His Name."
Years ago, part way through praise and worship at church, God dropped a thought into my mind and heart. I remembered the many times that my husband has reiterated something he once heard, "This life is but a dressing room for eternity." With that in mind, the thought came to me that this life is the only time we will ever truly offer to God a sacrifice of praise. Once we enter eternal life, we will no longer have to fight through the contrary thoughts of our mind, the turbulent emotions of our soul, the attention grabbing feelings of our body, the struggles of our sinful tendencies or the difficulties of our circumstances to praise Him.(Join me for the rest of this post on Sunday, January 31st at Woman to Woman Ministries, where each Sunday I share a bit of Sunday Soul Food!)
