Give Thanks with a Grateful Heart
Hurray! Another Thanksgiving holiday is here! I am grateful to God for the privilege of salvation, to be able to call Him my Father is priceless to me. To have His Holy Spirit living in me, accompanying me on my journey is the icing on the cake!
I thank God for life!
Much more than ever, I appreciate the value of being numbered among the living. I thank God for family and friends kept by the mighty hand of God.
God has preserved us through these tough months of the pandemic. He healed our
bodies when we were sick. He gave us peace that calmed our fears. He strengthened
our hearts and gave us grace to deal with any losses we may have experienced.
He put food on our tables and some more in our pantries. He kept a roof over
our heads!
As you celebrate thanksgiving with your family, let your heart align with your words. Ruminate on the goodness of God. Sing and make melody in your heart to the Lord. The psalmist said:
That my soul may sing praise to You and not be silent.
O Lord my God, I will give thanks to You forever (Psalm 30:12).
