THANKFULNESS
AND TRUST are like close friends who are always ready to help you. When
your day looks bleak and the world seems scary, it's time to rely on
these faithful friends. Stop for a moment and take some deep breaths.
Looking around you--searching for beauty and blessings--and thank Me for
what you find. This connects you with Me in a wonderful way. Speak to
Me in glowing terms about how you're feeling. As you persist in
expressing your gratitude, you'll find yourself becoming joyful.
It's
also helpful to frequently voice your trust in Me. This reminds you
that I am with you and I am absolutely reliable! There are always areas
of your life where you need to trust Me more fully. When hard times
come, view them as opportunities to expand the scope of your
trust--living by faith in these challenging seasons. Don't waste the
opportunities; use them to come closer to Me. I welcome you warmly with
open arms!
It is good to give thanks to the Lord,
And to sing praises to Your name, O Most High;
To declare Your lovingkindness in the morning,
And Your faithfulness every night, Psalm 92:1-2 (NKJV)
And to sing praises to Your name, O Most High;
