I am grateful
Gratitude is the doorway to joy. Take a moment to say thank you to the Giver of every good thing.
What God's word says
1Give thanks to the LORD, for he is good, for his loving kindness endures forever.
16Always rejoice. 17Pray without ceasing. 18In everything give thanks, for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus toward you.
4Enter into his gates with thanksgiving, and into his courts with praise. Give thanks to him, and bless his name. 5For the LORD is good. His loving kindness endures forever, his faithfulness to all generations.
17Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of lights, with whom can be no variation nor turning shadow.
24This is the day that the LORD has made. We will rejoice and be glad in it!
