Gratitude
O give thanks unto the LORD; for he is good: for his mercy endureth for ever. Psalm 136:1
During the Thanksgiving season, we really focus on thankfulness toward God. We make it a point to tell Him “thank you” for all He’s done for us personally, our families and our nation. Thanksgiving comes once a year. Hopefully, this is not the only time we meditate on His goodness.

In ministering to others, I visit nursing homes fairly often. Many of the residents cannot dress themselves, speak or walk. These abilities are among the many things I believe that we take for granted. It is easy to get wrapped up in the daily affairs of life and ignore the blessings God bestows that are not material.
May we all develop an attitude of thankfulness toward God for His grace, mercy and kindness.
