When you look back over your life and the paths you have traveled, do you see God’s hands in the steps you have taken?  Do you see how He has held you?  How He has raised you?  How He has saved you? 

Do you see the times when the way was confusing, and darkness covered the way?  Do you see the mess-ups, the missteps, and the stumbling?  Do you see how He brought you back, dusted you off, and made you new from the inside out? 

Do you see how He never gave up on you?

In all of that, did you realize your preciousness to Him?

Did you understand the high price He offered for you?  Did you see His love for the pure delight in you that it is? 

Father God, You are our praise!  Our worship for You!  You are the reason we rejoice today.  You are the reason we are here.

You are the One who has blessed us.  You are the One who has forgiven us.  You are the One who has redeemed us.  You are the One who has kept us day by day.

Our praise is of You!

You are our portion, our God, our King, and our Heavenly Father!  It is Your name we glorify.  It is You in whom we boast.  It is Your holy name that we praise!  “Bless the LORD, O my soul: and all that is within me, bless his holy name,” (Psalm 103:1).
