Blessed

I was surfing some praise and worship songs... I do this every time I am enjoying my time out. I just love to listen to Leeland or third day or hillsongs or Chris Tomlin or Sonicflood or casting crowns [the list could go on] online. It is better this way than downloading it all because my PC does not have enough space to store my music. As i googled, I came across this old favorite PW song. I used to sing this song way back... Blessed Be your Name.

Well, I am in the midst of difficulty [just so you know] ... and being in this season, I sometimes find it hard to focus and do my quiet time... there are moments that I would come to reason that it is okay not to talk to God because I simply cant... because no matter how I tried... I find myself blank and empty... but when you are used to it... you will just go through the motion, just like washing your face when you wake up and brush your teeth. When habits are formed, it is hard to break... So I did it anyway. I do my quiet time, I read... but praising God with all my heart and with the contents of my heart... that is so hard to fake.

So going back to what I was doing-- googling PW Songs. I stumbled on this music video, like I said my old fave one, so I eagerly clicked and listened... in the midst of enjoying the song... I began to be reminded that regardless of my circumstance... God is worthy of all praise. Worshiping the Lord is not reserved when situations are good... because at all times, God is good. Bad times are inevitable... but it is a personal choice to worship God in the midst of difficulty. It is hard but you have a lot of reason to thank God still. Plus knowing your position in Christ is one good reason to thank God for.
