Psalm 148:1-14
Praise Changes Things!
Try It!
Mrs. Chas.
-E.
Cowman tells of a missionary in dark China who was living a defeated life.
Everything seemed to be touched with sadness and although he prayed and prayed for months for victory over depression and discouragement, his life remained the same.
He determined to leave his work and go to an interior station and pray till victory came.
He reached the place and was entertained in the home of a fellow Missionary.
On the wall hung a motto with these words, "Try Thanksgiving."
The words gripped his heart and he thought within himself, "Have I been praying all this time and not praising?"
He stopped and began to praise and was so uplifted that instead of hiding away to pray and agonize for days he immediately returned to his waiting flock to tell them that praise changes things.
Wonderful blessing attended this simple testimony and the bands that had bound others were loosened through praise.
