Heart of Gratitude 

The word ‘thanks’ literally describes the grateful acknowledgement of past and present goodness done for a person. But this gratefulness does not come to us naturally. Only when we examine the word of God, we are able to recognize the fact that the Lord has not destroyed us for our wrong doings and wrong relationships. But He has showered His mercy and grace on us and protected us through His precious blood. When we thus grow in the word our hearts will be filled with gratitude spontaneously and we begin to thank and praise Him immediately. 

The Lord God who dwells in the midst of the praises of Israel comes into us and dwells within us. His presence will immediately remind us of our unworthiness before Him and also the need to maintain a deep sense of gratitude towards Him. God’s word will remind us of the wonderful works that He has done in our life in the past and His goodness towards us. 

Dear friend, it is true that unless the word of God operates in you, you will never be able to realize His mercy and grace. So my friend, read the word, pray and thank Him for His mercies. Thank the Lord every day, every moment of your life for the goodness and mercies He has showered on you. 

Prayer

“Loving Lord, how true it is for You have turned my mourning into dancing. When I think of Your mercy I am indeed thankful to You for carrying me all through my life. I commit myself to read Your word and acknowledge You every day, Amen.”
