Happy Monday friends! We are now into the month of May. The month of May is probably one of my favorite months of the year. In this week’s blog, I am talking about praise. Do you love to sing? Do you have times in your life that the joy of the Lord spills over into song? There is never a better time to get our praise on!
Let’s face it, we live in uncertain times. It is a struggle on many days to find something good in the world. If we only focus on the things of the world and how we feel, we would never find anything to be joyful about.
Psalm 18: 2-3 states, “The Lord is my rock, my fortress and my deliverer; my God is my rock, in whom I take refuge, my shield and the horn of my salvation, my stronghold. I called to the Lord, who is worthy of praise; and I have been saved from my enemies.”
The Lord is always stable and never changing and we are supposed to imitate Him.
In the good times, praise the Lord! In the bad times, praise the Lord! There is never a better time to get our praise on!
What music do you listen to? One of my new favorites is Endless Praise by Charity Gayle.
If you aren’t already, I urge you to fill your life with praise. On your drive to work, turn on your favorite praise and worship music. When you get home from a long day, tune into your favorite radio station.
God doesn’t care about your singing voice. He only cares about our heart! Praise will make your days go so much better.
Friends, thank you for stopping by my blog today. I would love to hear from you.
Happy Monday friends! I hope you had a wonderful Easter weekend. As I write this, I am preparing for a visit from our grands. Social media is a wonderful tool for everyone to stay in touch. However, it is also a place where we spend too much time comparing ourselves to others. We are not called to compare ourselves to others!
Many times, I start my day out reading about the amazing lives of all of my Facebook friends which is not a great way to start a day.
This leads me to start thinking about all of the things that are wrong with me instead of all of the things that are right with me.
I forget about the problems that everyone is going through. Let’s face it, we all have problems.
Even Peter compare himself to others, “Jesus answered, “If I want him to remain alive until I return, what is that to you? You must follow me” (John 21:22).
The bottom line, I am supposed to compare myself to other people. When I do, it brings condemnation to my life.
We are all uniquely and wonderfully made! Focus on God’s wisdom and goodness!

Happy Monday, Friends! I hope that your week is off to a great start! This is probably my most favorite time of year. I love all of the flowers. Spring is the time to just make somebody happy!
I remember when my boys would pick flowers from the yard to give to me. In a small way, they wanted to make me happy.
Ephesians 2:10 states, “For we are God’s handiwork, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do.”
What are you doing to make somebody happy?
For starters, we need to get our minds off of ourselves which can be so hard. Even as an adult, we constantly think about the next greatest upgrade in all things.
We constantly find excuses to purchase a new phone, a car, or even a new home.
I admit, that I have been guilty in this area of my life.
There is nothing wrong with doing things for ourselves. However, we are so much happier when we do for others.
We need some kindness in this world. Take a minute to be the one who spreads kindness.
Friends, thank you for stopping by my blog today. I am always happy when you do! Stop by every week at kamzinsser.com.
