The Lord is my strength and my song, and he has become my salvation; this is my God, and I will praise him, my father’s God, and I will exalt him. — Exodus 15:2 ESV

Part of learning to live with a chronic illness is learning to praise God.
As you care for yourselves or for a loved one with a chronic illness, often you grow tired and weary. As you tire, you should focus on our Heavenly Father.
The Lord God will strengthen and renew you as you praise him.
Exodus 15:2 (KJV), “The Lord is my strength and song, and he is become my salvation: he is my God, and I will prepare him a habitation; my father’s God, and I will exalt him.”
We get our strength from the Lord. We should praise God.
Why should we praise him? We praise him to the honor of God. We praise him to exalt his name. We celebrate his praise.
Praise is the Lord God’s only. The tribute isn’t to magnify man but to praise the Lord.

If you are an Amazon Kindle Unlimited member the book is available to read for free in Kindle format. Over the next two months, I will publish each chapter as a blog post
