you only do it cause you are scared

------------------

PRAISE IS NOT SOMETHING YOU FAKE. PRAISE IS SOMETHING YOU GIVE TO SOMEONE WHO IS AND HAS DONE SOMETHING GREAT FOR YOU IN YOUR LIFE. SO FOR ME NO IT IS NOT INSINCERE TO GIVE GOD ALL PRAISE!! HE ROCKS IN MY LIFE EVERY DAY AND ALL DAY LONG!! FOR YOU IT MAY BE THAT WAY BUT I PRAY YOU BEGIN TO KNOW ALL THE GREAT THINGS HE HAS DONE FOR YOU ALSO AND BEGIN TO NOT FAKE PRAISE BUT BE FOR REAL WHEN YOU GIVE IT TO HIM. NEVER GIVE UP BECAUSE YOU WILL GET TO THAT POINT SOMETIME IN YOUR LIFE. MAYBE EVEN TONIGHT!!!

I do not praise God because I am scared. I do not praise God because I don't know of anything else to do.

I praise God because I honor Him and Love Him.

If a man and a woman fall in love, they should praise each other. Praise means to honor, love, appreciate, exalt, to be devoted to, ... If this does not happen, one if not both will be unhappy with their <FONT COLOR="Green"> <FONT size="4">RELATIONSHIP.</FONT s></FONT c>

I praise God because, I desire to have a deeper relationship with Him. I know that my life has not been the same since I decided to follow Him.

So do I do it because I am scared? NO, because I remember what my life was like before God was apart of it.

He did promise that He <FONT COLOR="Red"><FONT size="4">"would NEVER leave us, NOR forsake us". Hebrews 13:5 </FONT s></FONT c>
Can we say <FONT COLOR="Green">HONESTLY </FONT c>that about anyone else??

As long as your motives are honest and right one's praise will never be insincere. There is something funny about praise.....when someone properly, honestly, sincerely praises God for what He has done in thier lives they have the strangest tendency to start to worship Him as well. Worship is exalting God for who He is and it is brought on by an awareness of His holiness and a love for Him. You cannot love someone you are afraid of that is impossible. The Bible even says that perfect love casts out all fear. Therefore, in the light of the above, the conclusion must be made that true praise is always sincere.

what's up freak?....
i'm not gonna come at you with big bold letters & junk to try to convince you of something you reject, there is only one who can change your mind& that's all in right timing. but, you definately have a point. christians praise God because they fear him, but you're trying to prove something that will never be true. people who love God don't give him praise, respect & their utmost fear because they are afraid that if they don't lightning will strike..they do it out of love and honor for their Creator.

"The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom."
