Let's start this year with Praise and Thanksgiving for all that the Lord has done, doing and will do. As the Bible says "Let your praise exalt the Lord as best you can, he is greater than you could even express. Honor him with all your strength and do not tire, for you can never praise him enough." (Sirach 43:30) And in Eucharist prayer II we read that our praise does not add anything to the great glory of God but it only helps for our salvation. So, let us praise and thank him, as far as we can. As just give here a small sample which I found in a friends blogger, I share it with you..... you can add details of God's goodness to you and continue this prayer.... at least today.. try to recollect all the goodness of the Lord as much as you can and praise the Lord.
