Get the appCountdown to Christmas: 12 Days to Prepare Your HeartSample
Let's Give Thanks
What are you thankful for on this Christmas Day?
Maybe it’s being surrounded by loved ones, or being in a church community, celebrating together.
Maybe it’s the privilege of a delicious meal on the table, or a thoughtful gift received.
No matter where you are reading this from, or who you are with, we all can be thankful for what we all have in Jesus — salvation, eternal life, and a beautiful relationship with Him.
Psalm 100 is a beautiful reminder of a heart posture of praise, not just a thoughtless thank you thrown out, but a resounding shout of joy, gladness, and thanksgiving. Thankfulness is a choice, and it's one we can make regardless of our circumstances.
As Christians, our joy, hope, and peace are found IN JESUS, God's greatest gift to us. Whether you are experiencing loss, hardship, or pain, our prayer is that today you would be comforted in knowing that the Lord is God, that you are His, He loves you, and He is with you... And that’s something worth praising God for.
On the first Christmas Day, more than 2,000 years ago, God displayed His eternal faithfulness and enduring love to His people. Let us start and end today, with the hundreds of generations of people who have come since, by giving grateful praise for all He has done.
