Worship More and Worry Less: 30 Days of PraiseSample

A friend once told me her problems were running neck to neck with her blessings. That’s probably the case for many of you reading these words. If so, can I share a secret–something I’ve learned to do during the very hard days?

I’ve learned the power of thankfulness. It does seem magical, but it’s so much more. I love this excerpt from Jesus Calling:

“Thankfulness is not some sort of magic formula; it is the language of Love, which enables you to communicate intimately with Me. A thankful mind-set does not entail a denial of reality with its plethora of problems. Instead, it rejoices in Me your Savior, in the midst of trials and tribulations . . . . ” - Jesus Calling

Oh, my friends, please read that quote one more time, maybe out loud. Thankfulness doesn’t change everything, but it is the door to intimacy with the Father. It enables us to communicate with the Lord, the One who loves us more than life itself.
