"In everything give thanks; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you" -- 1 Thessalonians 5:18 / New King James Version
Sometimes, life here on earth can be complicated, demanding, and frustrating. When the demands of life leave us rushing from place to place with scarcely a moment to spare, we may fail to pause and thank our Creator for His gifts. But, whenever we neglect to give proper thanks to the Father, we suffer because of misplaced priorities.
Today, begin making a list of your blessings. You most certainly will not be able to make a complete list, but take a few moments today to jot down as many blessings as you can. Then, give thanks to the Giver of all good things: God. His love for you is eternal, as are His gifts. And it is never too soon or to late to offer Him thanks.

Today, Lord, let us count our blessings with thanksgiving in our hearts. You have cared for us, Lord, and we will give You the glory and the praise.
