Many, Lord my God, are the wonders you have done, the things you planned for us. None can compare with you; were I to speak and tell of your deeds, they would be too many to declare.

Psalm 40

Many, Lord my God, are the wonders you have done, the things you planned for us. None can compare with you; were I to speak and tell of your deeds, they would be too many to declare. v5

No doubt, Jesus has blessed me beyond what I deserve as I am witness to God's glory daily, all day long.  From sunrise to sunset and all the days of my life, I see God at work in my life, in the world, and in the lives of others.  What an amazing God You are!   

Scripture encourages us to be thankful as proper worship for the One True God who delivers, rescues, protects, provides, heals, teaches, encourages, etc.

See here for Colossians 3 and 1 Thessalonians 5 as examples.  Other examples, include Hebrews 12 and Colossians 4.

Therefore, since we are receiving a kingdom that cannot be shaken, let us be thankful, and so worship God acceptably with reverence and awe, for our “God is a consuming fire.” Hebrews 12:28-29

 

Devote yourselves to prayer, being watchful and thankful. Colossians 4:2

 

My Prayer: God You are THE God, my God, one who is always there, never breaks His promises and provides life to the FULL.  You are an amazing God and You bless me beyond what I deserve.  Thank You Jesus but please forgive me for my lack of patience, compassion and grace for others.  Help me turn from such sin and turn towards You.  Help me grow in my faith.  Help me love You with all of my heart, soul, mind and strength.  Help me love others as You do.  Give me strength.  Give Lisa strength.  Please heal and cure her of her cancer and the side effects from chemo and radiation.  Help me lead and serve Lisa, Zach, and Dustin.  Help me understand, be obedient to, and apply Your message for me today and every day.
