It Is A Good Thing To Give Thanks

It is a good thing to give thanks onto the Lord. He has given us so much to be thankful for. It is because of HIM, we live and move and have our being.

I find that when I am not thankful, I get in a critical mood. I can easily become a grumbler and a murmurer. When I am not thankful, it is so much easier to see the negative side of everything. That is certainly not a good place to be. On the other hand, when my heart is thankful there is no room for grumbling and murmuring. I am constantly looking for the best in everything and how I can be a blessing to others.

Being thankful is a choice every day of our life. I want to choose to be thankful even when I don't feel like it.

I encourage each of you as the scripture says in Psalm 100:4 "Enter into His gates with thanksgiving, And into His courts with praise. Be thankful to Him, and bless His name." I can assure you if you choose to do what God's word tells us to do, you will not be disappointed.

Blessings,

  1. Thia is a good word Sandy. It is how we look at things that renders us either happy or dissatisfied.

    You said, "...when my heart is thankful there is no room for grumbling and murmuring. I am constantly looking for the best in everything and how I can be a blessing to others." I like that!

    Thank you Sandy and blessings!
