The gift of praise

How can we fathom the depths of God, his wisdom and his knowledge? How can we ever know his mind? Paul’s attempt to get to the heart of God ended in acceptance and worship. We can only do likewise. We pray, we ponder, we speculate and we question but finally we have to put words aside and let the heart speak for itself. There’s something inside of us that is compelled to give God glory, something that was there long before we could reason. In the end, that’s all that matters. Thank you Lord, for the gift of praise. Allelluia!
