Praise

God wants us to give Him praise at all times because He knows what's best for us. He has a plan. 

Praising God for the things He has done has always restored me during times of pain. It's reminded me to be thankful for everything I do have. I might not have a baby now, but I have a God who loves me and knows each and every desire of my heart!  

It's through my praise that "My Arms are Open."

Jeremiah 33:11 (New International Version)

¹¹ the sounds of joy and gladness, the voices of bride and bridegroom, and the voices of those who bring thank offerings to the house of the LORD, saying, 
       "Give thanks to the LORD Almighty, 
       for the LORD is good; 
       his love endures forever." 
      For I will restore the fortunes of the land as they were before,' says the LORD.

Psalm 7:17 (New International Version)

 ¹⁷ I will give thanks to the LORD because of his righteousness 
       and will sing praise to the name of the LORD Most High.

1 Chronicles 29:11-13 (New International Version)

 ¹¹ Yours, O LORD, is the greatness and the power 
       and the glory and the majesty and the splendor, 
       for everything in heaven and earth is yours. 
       Yours, O LORD, is the kingdom; 
       you are exalted as head over all.

 ¹² Wealth and honor come from you; 
       you are the ruler of all things. 
       In your hands are strength and power 
       to exalt and give strength to all.

 ¹³ Now, our God, we give you thanks, 
       and praise your glorious name.

Last fall, I downloaded this song. It's great!
