When is the best time to praise the Lord?

6am - Get out of bed in my right mind - "Praise Him!"
7am - Leave for work and get stuck in traffic - "Hallelujah!"
8am - Get to work - "Praise God for my job!"
5pm - Headed home - "Thank you Lord for my home."

My Pastors are fond of reminding us that we need to praise God when we feel like it and praise Him when we don't. Do you praise Him only when you are in a good mood? I find that praising the Lord puts me in a better mood than I am already in. I "think myself happy" by letting God know how much I love and appreciate Him. How can any of us "have our chin dropped low enough to suck two dozen marbles out of a gopher hole"? The Lord tells us to make a joyful noise. The next time you are in stuck in traffic praise the Lord that you have a car to be stuck in. You'll feel better and the person in the car next to you may see you praising God as well. What a wonderful witnessing opportunity.
