"Praise the LORD! Praise God in his sanctuary;" (Psalm 150:1)
Praising God is one of our main objectives in this life. We praise God with our choices and actions by declaring our love for God by loving others. We praise God by being good stewards of all that God has given us---this fragile earth, our resources, our time and talents, our relationships.....everything. We praise God in prayer---both privately and corporately.
I know many people say they are spiritual, but not religious. They claim that they can be connected to God without church. Not true. Our connection to God is found in our connection to others. And church is not a building, but a community of believers. We are called to gather together and to worship---to praise God. And so, we gather...at lease once a week on the Lord's Day...to do just this:
"Praise him for his mighty deeds; praise him according to his surpassing greatness! Let everything that breathes praise the LORD!" (Psalm 150: 2, 6)
