1 Chronicles 16:34
"Give thanks to the Lord, for He is good; His love endures forever." NIV
"O give thanks unto the Lord; for he is good; for his mercy endureth for ever." KJV
We've all attended a Thanksgiving gathering with family, co-workers, or friends and everyone takes a turn sharing about things for which they are thankful. More often than not, the "things" that are mentioned are family, home, health, or job. Of course those are things that we should be thankful to have and they are all blessings from God. However, too often the more important blessings go unmentioned or even unremembered. The greatest blessing of all is salvation through Jesus Christ because without that, all the other things will be gone with time. Out of this greatest blessing flows all blessings that are ours if we accept the greatest One. These blessing are eternal.
Heavenly Father, we can't thank You enough for the greatest blessing You have freely given us. Help us keep our minds on the Cross and the gift of salvation Jesus Christ made possible for all of us. Increase our boldness to share with others so they will know this blessing is for them too. Fill our hearts with true thanksgiving for all Your wonderful blessings. In the name of Jesus Christ we pray, Amen.
