Praise: Always in Season for Hundreds of Reasons

The Psalmist in Psalm 145 rallies his whole being to vigilance as it pertains to praising the Lord. I would imagine that if we spent more time focused on His perfections and excellent attributes it would have a tremendous effect in shaping our own perspective on ourselves and what we are currently going through. Spend some time re-reading this majestic Psalm, and with paper and pen close by, enumerate all the reasons why David is so determined to make praising the Lord his primary occupation. With each successive day, add something to the list. Before long you will discover that there are infinite reasons to praise Him, because He is an infinite God. This will also eliminate a number of more trivial things that currently take up your time and attention. Praise is always in season and appropriate for hundreds of reasons.

Today was a busy day in the hospital, with the completion of another radiation treatment, an EEG to determine if there is any seizure activity, and a liver biopsy. Doctors are still scratching their heads as to the cause of the bilirubin elevation.
