What’s the Password?

Enter with the password: “Thank you!”
Make yourselves at home, talking praise.
Thank him. Worship him.

For God is sheer beauty,
all-generous in love,
loyal always and ever.

~ Psalm 100:4-5

I would maintain that thanks are the highest form of thought;
and that gratitude is happiness doubled by wonder.
~ G.K. Chesterton

    Praising and thanking Him is the main focus of life… from now through eternity. Thanking would truly be my “password”…
