Let Us Be Grateful

Ever notice how ingratitude leads to a lack of love and kindness, and intolerance towards others.

If we do not recognize and appreciate the mercy and help shown to us we will be ungrateful and unkind towards others. Ingratitude is forgetfulness or a poor return for kindness received. Ingratitude easily leads to lack of charity and intolerance towards others, as well as to other vices, such as complaining, grumbling, discontentment, pride, and presumption. How often have we been ungrateful to our parents, pastors, teachers, and neighbors? Do you express gratitude to God for his abundant help and mercy towards you and are you gracious, kind, and merciful towards your neighbor in their time of need and support?

So let us be mindful and pray.

"Lord Jesus, may I never fail to recognize your loving kindness and mercy. Fill my heart with compassion and thanksgiving, and free me from ingratitude and discontentment. Help me to count my blessings with a grateful heart and to give thanks in all circumstances."

God's Wonderful Works!

Go ahead and give God thanks

for all the glorious things he has done!

Go ahead and worship him!

Tell everyone about his wonders!

Let’s sing his praises! Sing, and put all of his miracles to music!

Shine and make your joyful boast in him, you lovers of God.

Let’s be happy and keep rejoicing no matter what.

Seek more of his strength! Seek more of him!

Let’s always be seeking the light of his face.

Don’t you ever forget his miracles and marvels.

Hold to your heart every judgment he has decreed.

For you are his servants, the true seed of Abraham,

and you are the chosen ones, Jacob’s sons.

For he is the Lord our God,

Psalm 105: 1-7 (TPT)
