Psalms 116:17
I will offer a sacrifice of praise and call on the name of the LORD.
Have you ever been to church on a day that you just don't feel like praising. Maybe the kids were especially difficult that morning or you just started the day on the wrong foot. As Christians, it's important to remember that this is totally normal. These times of feeling spiritually, "out of it" are going to happen. These are the times that praising God can feel like a sacrifice. It's a beautiful opportunity to grow in our faith. In putting aside whatever holds our attention in that moment and focusing on lifting up the name of the Lord, we reorient our hearts toward the one who is beyond any troubles we may face in this life, toward the eternal Father. Lord, help us to offer our sacrifice of praise in those times we feel stretched, distracted, or just plain tired.
