Bless the Lord

A while back, one of our pastors spoke about blessing the Lord.  We are always asking for blessings from Him, but really shouldn't we be looking for ways to bless Him?

Since that sermon, I have been looking for ways to bless the Lord.  Here are a few things I came up with:

• Share His love with a friend or neighbor
• Listen to worship music with your kids (don't be afraid to sing along)
• Let someone in a hurry go in front of you when you are in line at the grocery store
• Give the right of way to someone else while you are driving (using all safety precautions of course)
• Pay a bridge toll for the car behind you
• Forgive someone that has wronged you
• Make a meal/snack/dish for someone that needs help
• Make time for a friend going through a hard time
• Listen - truly listen - to your spouse
• Do something for your spouse you really don't feel like doing

These are just a few things I thought of that bless the Lord as we give of our time, our money - or just of ourselves.  Sometimes it is easy to do these kinds of things and sometimes it is difficult.  I am challenging myself every day to do at least one thing to bless the Lord.

I can do this....

but only In His Grace...
