"Oh, give thanks to the LORD, for He is good! For His mercy endures forever. Let the Redeemed of the Lord say so..." (Psalm 107:1-2)
This was the biblical challenge presented to us by Majors Raymond and Aylene Finger as they capably led us in our worship service this morning at Inala Chapel.
God always comes to us in our need with His enduring mercy and grace. He longs that we always come before Him in worship with an attitude of gratitude. Thanksgiving is an attitude of life that recognizes that everything is a gift; and all good gifts come from God. It's also an attitude that has to be taught. Complaining comes naturally; we have to learn to be grateful.
"Give thanks with a grateful heart."
Yes Lord, give us grateful thoughts and thankful actions!
1 Thessalonians 5:18 (NIV) ~ "Give thanks in all circumstances, for this is God's will for you in Christ Jesus."
