7 reasons to praise God:
1. He knows you (Is 43:1).
2. He sings over you (Zep 3:17).
3. He upholds you (Is 41:10).
4. He cares about you (1 Pt 5:7).
5. He watches over you (Gen 28:15).
6. He guides you (Lk 1:79).
7. He will never leave you (Mt 28:20).
If our treasure were in heaven, we should not have to be urging men to live for heaven, or pleading with them to lift their hearts heavenward. Their hearts would be there already.
D.L. Moody
