“But be sure to fear the Lord and serve him faithfully with all your heart; consider what great things he has done for you.” — 1 Samuel 12:24, NIV
Every single day we can give thanks to God for the great things He has done. Giving thanks does not have to be a grand gesture or complicated. In fact, it can be as simple as giving a prayer of thanks. Perhaps, we see a beautiful sunrise or enjoy a tasty meal. Maybe, we see someone do something kind or perhaps we have a little time to ourselves.
There are so many details in our daily lives that we can overlook if we are not careful. Each day brings new opportunity to be grateful and celebrate what God has done.
Psalm 13:5 says, “But I trust in your unfailing love; my heart rejoices in your salvation.” We should treasure our salvation with thankfulness. Our hearts can rejoice in this. It is not dependent on our situation, works or feelings but rather on Jesus Christ.
