Psalms 148:1-14 Acts 17:1-34 2 Samuel 24:1-25 1 Kings 1:1-53 Bible in a Year Through Song - Day 148 of 365 I love Psalm 148. I know I had written something on this Psalm before, so I went back to my old blog to find those posts. They are linked below the Psalm. In reading those I realized that I have not given Him the sacrifice of praise today that I should. I have been outside and taken some walks like I often do while working. However, I have not used any of that time today
