{we will praise him}

it's been a while, but here's a little post of some 
things that have been on my heart recently. 

what we do in secret, 
{in our minds}
will be apparent in our lives. 
so let your mind praise Him, so that 
your Spirit will shine. 

"i will sing praise with my spirit, but i will sing with my mind also."
1 corinthians 14:15

always, in everything we do in: word, mind, or deed,
 we are to praise His Holy name. in times of joy, 
in times of loss, in times of suffering.

because of the hope
 that He has given us, we

"rejoice in our sufferings, knowing that suffering produces endurance, and endurance produces character, and character produces hope, and hope does not put us to shame." 
romans 5:3

so praise Him when 
life is calm and seemingly secure, 
not just in times of 
tremendous need. because we 
{need Him at all times, good and bad.}

happy fall. :) go enjoy the brilliant colors today!
