Praise the Lord from the earth,
you great sea creatures and all ocean depths,
lightning and hail, snow and clouds,
stormy winds that do his bidding,
you mountains and all hills,
fruit trees and all cedars,
wild animals and all cattle,
small creatures and flying birds,
kings of the earth and all nations,
you princes and all rulers on earth,
young men and women,
old men and children.

God created man in his own image Genesis 1:26 with the intent that all his creation should love Him and worship Him. Unlike animals, [creatures] God does not force man to praise Him; he gives each of us a choice.
Each morning many of us rise to the sounds of birds cheerfully serenading the dawn of a new day. Often for hours you hear the repeated chorus from each species. The songs heard in the morning is quit different from that what you hear from the same birds during mid day. The morning croon seems to be happy and full of true unconditional praise, something each of us should do daily.
The attached audio is a brief example of what I am greeted with each morning when I walk out my door. One has to imagine this was the inspiration to Bob Marley’s classic song Three Little Birds
Rise up this mornin’
Smiled with the risin’ sun
Three little birds
Pitch by my doorstep
Singin’ sweet songs
Of melodies pure and true,
This is my message to you, if we as children of God can learn how to make a joyful praise like the birds, learn to worship the Lord with gladness; come before him with joyful songs his love will endure forever and his faithfulness will continue through all generations.
