God, I Thank You
I have always heard people say, “God, I thank you”, and in my mind I would always think, what are you thanking him for?
It was not until I got a little bit older and wiser that I realize, sometimes that is all you have to say.
Just thinking back on everything that God had brought me through, I can’t help but to say “Thank you”!
Psalms 107:1 says:
“O give thanks unto the LORD, for he is good: for his mercy endureth for ever.”
That is powerful! Because he has done so much in our lives that we need to say “thank you”! It so powerful, it is repeated in the Bible several times:
Psalms 136:1 “O give thanks unto the LORD, for he is good: for his mercy endureth for ever.”
(If you continue reading Psalms 136 in its entirety, it list why we should give thanks unto the Lord.)
1 Chronicles 16:34 “O give thanks unto the LORD, for he is good: for his mercy endureth for ever.”
This is just a few scriptures that lets us know the importance of giving thanks to God.
If ever we don't know the reason we should thank him, here is a few reasons:
He created us.
“God, I Thank You “!
He gave us his son to die on the cross for our sins so we can be saved and live life eternally with him.
“God, I Thank You “!
He kept us safe in dangerous situations.
“God, I Thank You “!
When we did not know what to do, or where to go he was the one leading and guiding us.
“God, I Thank You “!
He gave us wisdom to understand things we may not have an understanding of.
“God, I Thank You “!
He helped us out of situations that we put ourselves in.
“God, I Thank You “!
Even in our bad times, he always turned it around for our good.
“God, I Thank You “!
Yesterday was Thanksgiving, a day when we should be thankful. But everyday is a day of thanksgiving when it comes to the Lord, because he doesn’t have to bless us the way he does, but he blesses us anyway.
So don’t just get comfortable saying “God, I Thank You”, as something you just say, truly thank God from the bottom of your heart for all the things he has done.
God bless.
