“Give thanks to the Lord because he is good, because his mercy endures forever.
Give thanks to the Lord of lords because his mercy endures forever.
Give thanks to the only one who does miraculous things—because his mercy endures forever.
to the one who made the heavens by his understanding—because his mercy endures forever.
to the one who spread out the earth on the water—because his mercy endures forever.
to the one who made the great lights—because his mercy endures forever.
He remembered us when we were humiliated—because his mercy endures forever.
He snatched us from the grasp of our enemies—because his mercy endures forever.
He gives food to every living creature—because his mercy endures forever.
Give thanks to the God of heaven because his mercy endures forever” (Psalm 136:1, 3-7, 23-26).
Chomp on this!
Make a list of the blessings in your life. List the people in your life. Be sure to include miracles, creation, his power and protection from Satan, how he provides for you, and anything else he has given you that brings you closer to him.
Dear Lord, this whole month as we think of all the reasons we have to be thankful, help us remember that every good and perfect gift comes from you. Your mercy, kindness, goodness, and faithfulness endure forever. Thank you. Amen.
