Sunday Psalms:

Let all that I am praise the Lord; 

with my whole heart, 

I will praise his holy name.

Let all that I am praise the Lord; 

may I never forget the good things he does for me.

Psalms 103:1-2 NLT

This song starts with a repeat of "Let all that I am praise the Lord".

Some days this is where we are at, happy to praise Him, ready to "let all that I am" speak praise to our God, sing praise, live out my life in a way that honours and praises. 

And then there's other days when I need this as a reminder:

"Let all that I am praise the Lord" because there's so much pushing in on me right now, world events, my nation's problems, my work, business, housing, money, health, relationships, fears of the future, the haunting of the past, and I need a reminder to simply let all that I am praise the Lord. 

To let my focus be on Him. 

Just for a moment. 

A minute.

A few minutes.

Maybe going to church could be part of that too.  Collectively letting all that we are praise the Lord. Allowing the collective spirit, the "all of us" to fill my gaps, to let the praise of our God into those parts of us that hold fear, despair, joy and hope. 

Let all that I am, all that we are, praise the Lord.
