Thicker Than Waterنموونە

Have you ever felt like someone else’s family seems better than yours? They live in a bigger house, they don’t argue as much, order food from all your favorite places, go on better vacations, and have better phones and more gaming systems. Nothing can make us feel more like we are lacking, than looking around at what others have. This is why this Psalm, written by David, is so helpful. With God as our shepherd, with God looking out for us, we lack nothing. Sure, we may not always have what we want or as much as other families have, but this verse reminds us that we have God. And God will take care of us.

Today, take a minute to think about the strengths of your family and what you might be grateful for. Maybe it is a tradition you have or a way your family sticks by you even when you are going through a challenging circumstance.

Today, talk to someone in your family to tell them why you are grateful to have them as a part of the family God has given you.
