Profoundly Thankful
I have experienced such thankfulness that I couldn’t find the right words to express my gratitude. I sometimes simply have to take a breath and gather my thoughts to try to say thank you as profoundly as I know how. A grateful heart is a healthy heart. I’m constantly learning that Lord has changed my heart in so many ways and it’s a good thing for sure.
David had finally moved the Ark of the Covenant to Jerusalem and he prepared a huge celebration. I think he hosted a countrywide fellowship meal. He then wrote a song of thanks. Check this out….
23 Sing to the Lord, all the earth;
proclaim his salvation day after day.
24 Declare his glory among the nations,
his marvelous deeds among all peoples.
25 For great is the Lord and most worthy of praise;
he is to be feared above all gods.
26 For all the gods of the nations are idols,
but the Lord made the heavens.
27 Splendor and majesty are before him;
strength and joy are in his dwelling place.
28 Ascribe to the Lord, all you families of nations,
ascribe to the Lord glory and strength.
29 Ascribe to the Lord the glory due his name;
bring an offering and come before him. (1 Chronicles 16:23-29 NIV)
I want to write a song like this for the Lord.
I want to sing a song like this for the Lord.
I want the Lord to see my grateful heart.
I believe a grateful heart toward the Lord also helps foster a grateful heart toward others. If I look hard enough, I can find something to be grateful for in the toughest of times. This morning I’m thankful for the sunrise, the morning for sure. I’m thankful for my family. I’m going to keep adding to my gratitude list for sure. Knowing the Lord had helped me learn profound thankfulness for sure.
Pressing On!
