I just now read my devotions for today and I wanted to share them because I really like them, and we can always be reminded to be thankful.
1 Thessalonians 5:18
”Be thankful in all circumstances, for this is God’s will for you who belong to Christ Jesus.”
One of the best ways to experience God is to notice and appreciate all the so-called little things around you. Often it is when you turn your focus outward that you see many things for which to be thankful. Instead of saying ‘I wish’ try saying, ‘I’m thankful.’ Cultivate an appreciative heart by giving thanks regularly, consistently, and spontaneously. Doing so helps to drive away thoughts of the disappointments that blind you to God’s gifts in the here and now. Every moment is an opportunity to see evidence of God’s provision and presence.
“Give thanks to the Lord, for he is good! His faithful love endures forever.” 1 Chronicles 16:34
