Scripture of the Day - October 30, 2012

Hebrews 13:15 ...let us offer the sacrifice of praise to God continually, that is, the fruit of our lips giving thanks to his name.

It seems odd to call praise a sacrifice but it certainly can be. When your world comes crashing in on you it is a sacrifice to praise God. Many people blame God for their calamity and instead of praising Him they get angry at Him. God is not to blame...sinful humanity is to blame. Man brought sin into this world but God loved his creation so much that He manifested Himself in the flesh, in other words He sent His son, to pay the penalty for our sin. We ought to praise Him every day for that and turn to Him whenever our hearts are breaking for He came to heal the brokenhearted.
