Last Tuesday, I felt led of God to organize a "Day of Praise" in which those who participate would simply praise God all throughout their day. The response has been great, and I have between 10 and 12 people who have pledged to join me in this day of praise to our Father.
My blogging-friend, Camden, pointed out to me the relevance of Paul's words in Philippians 4:4:
"Rejoice in the Lord alway: and again I say, Rejoice."
When you think about it, praising God is nothing more than rejoicing over what He has done in our lives. And, as Solomon said in Proverbs 17:22, "A merry heart doeth good like a medicine..." Praising the Lord fills us with a greater joy than just about anything else. Not only that, but it pleases our heavenly Father, which should be our greatest desire.
If the Lord has blessed you in any way, shape, or form, then let me encourage you to use this day as a day of praise and worship for all the blessings He has given you.
"Because thou hast been my help, therefore in the shadow of thy wings will I rejoice."-Psalm 63:7

I was able to go to the dentist this morning to get some selance (sp?) for some teeth. Instead of wasting a good hour just sitting in that chair, I intentionally praised God during the time two dentists were glaring over my mouth.
Praise God!

Psalm 139:14
I praise you, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made. Wonderful are your works;
my soul knows it very well.
