There was an elderly Christian whose advancing years had taken their toll on her memory. As her health faded the time came that she could recite but a single verse (2 timothy 1:12) "I know whom I have beieleved and am persuaded that he is able to keep that which I’ve committed unto HIM against that day".

Even these words slowly slipped away from her memory until only a few days of her life remained and friends would hear her repeat just seven words. "that which I’ve committed unto him"

Finally as the hour of the women’s death neared and her memory was all but gone.

voiced a single word repeatedly, it was all she could remember.

"HIM! HIM! HIM!"

here is the key to our praise, when we come together to worship, when we are giving thanks in the presence of others,or when we are expressing our faith through praise

let it all focus upon HIM.
