Thankful For = Thankful To

Celebrating thankfulness today! As harvest begins to be gathered in hearts overflow with thankfulness!Pray we never simply stop at the 'happy' feeling,but trace our praise to the Giver of every blessingHis loving care bestows Thankfulness without someone to receive said gratitudeWould make its meek awareness but a circumstantial nodAs soon as we are ‘thankful for,’ we become ‘thankful to’And thankfulness, all said and done, always leads us to God From God’s goodness and mercy spills each loveliness we knowEach reason to be thankful thunders with His loving waysThus, what a debt of worship to His faithfulness we oweWhat happiness, as humble thankfulness is turned to praise Then as we pay attention to all we are ‘thankful for’May we be awed by who we ought to be most ‘thankful to’…the God of our salvation! Who can need anything moreSave to make thankful praise the goal of all that we pursue © Janet Martin Ps.59:16But I will sing of Your power;Yes, I will sing aloud of Your mercy in the morning;For You have been my defenseAnd refuge in the day of my trouble. Cause me to hear thy lovingkindness in the morning;for in thee do I trust:cause me to know the way wherein I should walk;for I lift up my soul unto thee. Psalm 107:1Oh, give thanks to the LORD, for He is good!For His mercy endures forever. Praise ye the LORD. O give thanks unto the LORD;for he is good: for his mercy endureth for ever. O give thanks unto the LORD; for he is good:because his mercy endureth for ever. O give thanks unto the LORD; for he is good:for his mercy endureth for ever. Give thanks to the LORD, for He is good;His loving devotion endures forever.
