Chris.
Christ Himself made a Proclamation of Praise to the Father. This
is a very good example for us. How often do we make Proclamations of Praise to
Him? Even when we gather in Church sometimes we follow the times of singing
Praise songs but our heart is not in it, we just sing because other people are
singing. Let us make Proclamations of Praise to the Heavenly Father.
