  1. Wonderful lesson Wendy. Thank you!
    Very intense question: Why do I love the Lord?
    Found that by the end of the lesson I was writing down many answers.
    Something to keep in our thoughts. Don’t think there could ever be enough answers.
    Enjoy this day!

  3. Great lesson to sit on and ponder. As not to clog up this feed I won’t post all of the YouTube links but here is a sort of set list of the “what’s” of my praise. They just kept popping in my head. I really needed to list these songs for myself today as I’m trying to climb out of the “poor me pit.” If any of you are right there with me maybe these songs will help you too! Have a praise-filled day!

    ?On My Knees? My Deliverer?Jesus Saves? Amazing Grace, My Chains Are Gone? Make His Praise Glorious? Is He Worthy?? Let Others See Jesus In You? My Tribute, To God Be The Glory? Hear Our Praises?

  4. I love the Lord simply because of who He is. Because of the natural beauty I see everyday. Because of the peace that passes understanding I feel today. Because He promises to always be with me. Because of His unfailing love for me even inspite of my sins and failings. Because He is always faithful even though I am not.

  5. Dear Wendy,
    this is my life verse- “Because He bends down to listen, I will pray as long as I have breath;” Psalm 116:2 NLT

    I love God for His mercy, His forgiveness of my many sins, for His faithfulness. I feel like you do- let me be found praying and praising His name for eternity.

    Let me share this with you- Last week I had cataract surgery – apparently when I woke up somewhat I was praying out loud for God to guide the surgeon’s hands – and the surgeon had to tell me “stop talking” ! ha! My prayer is that my heart and my mind and my soul will forever be found praising Him.

    1. That is so beautiful. Definitely an example of praying without ceasing. I love your life verse too.
