It is common practice as families gather at the Thanksgiving table, to at some point, name at least one thing for which each person is thankful. Being thankful, however, should never be something we do only at special times of the year. We are told to give thanks in everything (which would then become at all times) because this is the will of God in Christ for us.
As we stand at the threshold of April and thoughts of Easter surface, surely being thankful comes effortlessly. Date aside, this is the time of year we commemorate the death, burial, and glorious resurrection of our Savior, Jesus Christ.
But before we get to Easter, as this weekends, what are you thankful for today? Remember, an attitude of gratitude keeps us humble and makes us glad recipients of grace.
So today let's not forget to give thanks to the LORD for he is good and his mercy, steadfast love, endures forever.
