I want to encourage you to be intentionally thankful every day. You will notice that being constantly mindful of all the things that you are thankful for will increase your positivity about life. With all the negativity in our world today, we could benefit from being more positive. Being thankful will do just that.
Today’s Scripture: Psalm 7:17 “I will give to the LORD the thanks due to his righteousness, and I will sing praise to the name of the LORD, the Most High.”
Notice the word “due” in today’s scripture. This word implies that there is a measure of thanksgiving that we owe our Lord. So ask yourself this question, “Have I given or paid enough thanks today? (Think about it!)
Today’s Challenge: Why not make an opportunity to express thanks to your siblings today? If you do not have any siblings, then reach out to the closest friend that you have and express thanks for something they did that impacted your life, or something that uniquely qualifies them.
It could be their wit, charm, and attention to detail, compassion or just something they said that meant the world to you. This may be a stretch for some. But I have faith in you. It wouldn’t be a challenge if it were all easy.
I’ll see you on the thankful side of life.
