Lots of things are worth trying. The praising of God is supposed to give you comfort in times of strife. No matter how difficult your life as become, you know you have a higher power on your side.
Worshipping God and doing good things in his name is supposed to help you live the life you were meant to live which is important to your happiness. For those who believe in God, working toward this end is about building a better community and accepting God's plan for you which is meant to give you peace. If nothing else, religion can give you a sense of community and support beyond that of your immediate family.It can also help you find a purpose for your life if you feel as if you do not currently have a direction.
This works for many people, for others they do not take to it as thoroughly.
The praising of God in song has been known for millennia as a huge stress reliever. Watch Christian hymn-singing or ndu kirtan and see how relaxed and joyful everyone looks. Singing activates the right hemisphere, giving us a break from the rationalizing and conceptualizing left hemisphere.It brings people together; thinking about God lets us stop worrying about our own mundane problems.
Whatever the source of the command to praise God, it's a perfectly sensible thing to do!
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
