Within each of us there is a desire to receive praise. It can be anything from a seemingly insignificant compliment to a jaw-dropping exclamation that brings credit and affirmation to something we’ve accomplished. Because God made us in His image, then He too desires our praise! We tend to forget that He not only wants to hear about our struggles and requests—He also wants us to tell Him how great He is. Here is a quick reminder to praise Him and what it brings to us in return. Look at the word “praise” itself.
