Giving Thanks

O give thanks unto the Lord, for he is good; for his mercy endures forever.” Psalm 107:1

“The fruit of the spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, generosity, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control.”  Galatians 5:22-23

"From the fullness of his grace we have received one blessing after another.” John 1:16

What am I most thankful for today?       

Knowing that God is with me today and always – no matter what?

Receiving God’s strength and grace when I have painful times?

God’s healing when illness challenges my body?

The support I receive from family, friends, and church members?

Hope for a better world even in times of hate and turmoil?

A world touched by caring, love and peace?

Enjoying bountiful food, a comfortable home, essential clothing and so much more?

Living in a world of wonder, beauty, and all of God’s creation?

I am grateful for so many blessings that I receive each day.

What are you most thankful for today?

Prayer: God, we often neglect to express our thanks for all our blessings that you give us daily. Remind us to freely share from all that you give us. Amen.
