Because there are no limits to the goodness of God, no detail that escapes God's notice or affirmation, there are no limits to the times and places wherein praise and worship to God are fitting. Paul's admonition to "rejoice always, pray without ceasing, give thanks in all circumstances (I Thes. 5:16-18) makes perfect sense to Sabbath people tuned to God's gracious presence in the world. When we punctuate key, though mundane, events in the day with praise, we consecrate our life and our living to God.
