"Give thanks to the Lord, for He is good; His love endures forever." -I Chronicles 16:34 (NIV)
Although we may not take the time to realize it, we are all blessed. Our blessings may come in many different forms. They may be easily described as our joys and celebrations, but even in the less obvious times in our lives, God is working. His work produces blessings even during the lowest points in our lives. When we think of praising and thanking God, we may think about the blessings, joys, and celebrations in our lives, but are those the only reasons to praise and thank God?
God blesses us and should be praised always. We should also be thankful for His work in our lives. However, we shouldn't praise and thank Him based solely on what we perceive we get from Him. We should praise and worship God because He is good! God is pure. His goodness and love know no end, they last forever. We don't have to worry about God abandoning us or running out of love. God's goodness and love endure forever and so should our praises and thanksgiving!
Praise and thank God for His blessings, but also praise Him and thank Him for His goodness and love!
Prayer:
Dear God-
Thank You for being good, pure, and loving. Please help me to show others Your true, good nature, so that they, too, can praise and thank You for Your goodness and love. Through Jesus I pray, amen.
