Thanksgiving

Psalm 69 I will praise God’s name in song and glorify him with thanksgiving.
This will please the Lord more than an ox, more than a bull with its horns and hooves.

It is less than two weeks until Thanksgiving, and even though we all learn to say "Thank you" with our lips,  I believe a thankful heart has to be cultivated.

We have to teach our kids by example to say, “Thank You” to those who bless us.  We all have to realize how blessed we are, by actually seeing God’s provision in our lives, in order to give thanks.  And we have to choose to say, “Thank You,” when we don’t feel thankful at all.

One of the ways we can offer thanksgiving is through song.  It pleases the Lord to sing to him.  In fact, he will join in and sing right back to you!  He’d rather have a song of thanksgiving, than constant sacrifice and mourning in your prayers.

Singing is a universal language, and it’s in the heart of every man, woman, and child.

Sing your thanksgiving to God today.  Sing it loud.  Sing it bold. Sing like no one is listening…except Him.
