Overflowing With Thanks!
by Pastor Ken and Joyverse
Psalm 75:1
We give thanks to you, God. We give thanks, for your Name is near. Men tell about your wondrous works.
Thankfulness fills you with positive energy.
When a person is thankful, their smile comes from the inside out. And when you realize that everything good you have is because of Jesus, your life becomes more meaningful and you become closer and more intimate with Him. That is why it is important to take some time each day to say thank-You to the giver of all blessings: Jesus.
Think about it:
• God sent His Son Jesus to earth, where He became a man so He could die on the cross to give you eternal life (1 John 4:9-10).
• No matter what you have done, Jesus’ sacrifice is more than strong enough to wash your sinful record clean (John 3:16).
• But He didn’t stop there. He prays for you and is caring for you (Romans 8:34).
What gifts of God are you especially thankful for? What things around you, in nature, in your life, and in your relationships cause You to praise Him? What “wondrous works” has He done in your life?
Take some time to count your blessings — and to give thanks for them — today!
Reflection
In what ways do I deliberately appreciate God’s many blessings?
Prayer
Dear Lord, Thank You so much for Your constant overflowing love and grace. I will praise You as long as I live. Please help me joyfully share with others what You have done for me. I pray in the name of Jesus, Who has done more for me than I deserve, Amen.
