- have you thought about what it means to Praise God "With all my Heart"?
- It's more than singing a song.
- It's greater than expressing it with your mouth.

- Your present situation...
- And surrendering your past regrets...
- The Psalmist says, "I will give glory to your name forever" - That means through all situations.
- Sometimes we only think to praise God and Honor Him when things are going really good...

- But We have to Praise and worship God for who He is and not just what He can do for us.
- He is not your personal "Santa Clause"
- We have to learn to praise Him in the good and the bad
- In your "High times" and your "low times".

- That worship and praise will bring in His presence.

- Despite your circumstances - Praise Him!
- He is worthy of your Praise!
