Wisdom to Thanksgiving

Whatever greeted you this morning when your eyes opened to the new day, let your heart cultivate thanksgiving now. There is always a reason to be grateful. What reasons do you have? Pour your heart out before God with thankfulness. If you are not quite there yet, remind yourself of what he has already done for you. Think about his goodness and the ways that you have seen him come through for you.

May the words of Christ encourage you with strength for today and instill a bright hope for tomorrow. Let wisdom be your teacher, leading you to deeper gratitude. Do you have a song to sing? Let it out! A poem or psalm that encourages your soul? Recite it! Whatever is true and noble, what encourages and refreshes your spirit, think about those things. Follow the lead of love as you go about your day. Let your heart rest in the constant presence of Christ with you.

Jesus, thank you for your faithfulness in my life. As I remember what you have done, I can’t help but be both humbled and encouraged. I trust that you are not finished with me yet. Continue to fill my life with the tangible goodness of your presence as I follow you.
