Let us give thanks





When you arise in the morning, do you give thanks for the morning ?  Do you say thank you Lord for allowing me to see an new day?  Do you give thanks for fact that you were able to get out of bed?
Do you give thanks for the food that you ate?  Do you give thank for the life that you live?
Do you give thanks for the clothing on your back? Do you give thanks for your basic needs being provided for?  If you see no reason for giving thanks, then  the fault lies in yourself!








15 And one of them, when he saw that he was healed, returned, and with a loud voice glorified God, 16 and fell down on his face at His feet, giving Him thanks. And he was a Samaritan. 17 So Jesus answered and said, “Were there not ten cleansed? But where are the nine? (Luke 17:15-17)



Give thanks to the LORD, call on his name; make known among the nations what he has done.

(1 Chronicles 16:8)

Give thanks to the LORD, for he is good; his love endures forever.(
1 Chronicles 16:34)

Cry out, "Save us, O God our Savior; gather us and deliver us from the nations, that we may give thanks to your holy name, that we may glory in your praise."(
1 Chronicles 16:35)

Now, our God, we give you thanks, and praise your glorious name. (
1 Chronicles 29:13)

"I thank and praise you, O God of my fathers: You have given me wisdom and power, you have made known to me what we asked of you, you have made known to us the dream of the king."(
Daniel 2:23)

But I, with a song of thanksgiving, will sacrifice to you. What I have vowed I will make good. Salvation comes from the LORD." (
Jonah 2:9)

Many us will remember to say grace over their  meals. Many will even list things that they are grateful for during holiday meals. But we must also remember WHO we are thankful to. Let us give thanks to God almighty for without his blessing we would have nothing.
