Praise The expression of approval or admiration for someone or something. Does Jesus have our approval and admiration? This is a great question! If He doesn't then we have to ask ourselves, why? What are we missing? To be honest, I've really been struggling with praise. As I've been so all over the place physically and [...]
Jesus did it again. I'm crying. No, this is a good thing. I had written a piece on praise. I was going to post it today. Change of plans. Without giving too much of that post away, I was looking through my notes on the Psalms in one of my journals when I came across [...]
