Always, GOD!

From a friend's email tag line ...

Happy moments, PRAISE GOD.
Difficult moments, SEEK GOD.
Quiet moments, WORSHIP GOD.
Painful moments, TRUST GOD.
Every moment, THANK GOD.


(slightly edited, I can't help myself.)


Happy moments, THANK GOD.
Quiet moments, WORSHIP GOD.

Difficult moments, SEEK GOD.
Painful moments, TRUST GOD.

Every moment, PRAISE GOD.


Psalm 22:22
I will declare your name to my brothers;
in the congregation I will praise you.


Etymological Notes

From these etymologies, we see that "praising" God, or "prizing" God, is always appropriate, because his worth and value is inestimable.

Praise \Praise\, n.
[OE. preis, OF. preis price, worth, value, estimation. See {Praise}, v., {Price}.]

Prize \Prize\ (pr[imac]z), n.
[F. prise a seizing, hold, grasp, fr. pris, p. p. of prendre to take, L. prendere, prehendere; in some senses, as 2 (b), either from, or influenced by, F. prix price. See {Prison}, {Prehensile}, and cf. {Pry}, and also {Price}.]
