Benefits of Praise

Praise can be elusive during challenging times, but God wants us to give thanks in all situations.
God sees and knows everything, offering solutions and purpose even in difficult circumstances.
God is the author of our lives, and there are three life stages: those better than us, those we are better than, and those at our same level.
Focusing on those better than us can lead to resentment and envy, whereas focusing on our own worth and praising God in all areas of life can be transformative.
Keeping a daily journal of our achievements and reflecting on our worth can help us appreciate our blessings and avoid comparing ourselves to others.
Life is a journey with various stages (ascending, plateau, descending), each demanding different approaches.
Finding the right "gears" (approaches) for each stage is key to navigating life's journey effectively.
