Some say that it, it's not right
For us to praise on this type of night
When I have a bad day or are in a bad mood, I struggle with praising God. If things go terribly wrong for some reason, I spend my time blaming and questioning God instead of praising Him. In the lyrics above, I would be one of the "some" who say that it isn't right to praise God on this type of night (this type of night being a bad night).
While tonight wasn't a completely horrible disaster, it still wasn't a great evening in my eyes. I had dinner with people who I was friends with in high school. Although I knew it was a stretch, I was hoping that tonight would bring us back together to be friends, but instead I was just reminded again of how much I have grown apart from them. It just wasn't a great night.
Typically, on nights like these, I would have a hard time praising God. I would rather just be in a bad mood, wanting people to pity me, but tonight's song showed me that what I'm doing isn't right. There is no bad time to praise God. There is no excuse that should allow me a free pass to not thank God for my amazing life.
Tonight I was reminded of all of the good times I shared with my friends in high school. I was also reminded of how much I have grown over the past 4 years, and how happy I am with my life right now. I praise God for filling my life with all of these amazing things.
