THANK YOU LORD~ by C D SWANSON
Bless the Lord, O my soul. O Lord my God, thou art very great: thou art clothed with honour and majesty. (Psalm 104)
The first thing I utter upon opening my eyes in the morning is “thank you Lord for another day to serve you.” And, from that moment on I give thanks in abundance to our loving and Sovereign God. In all that I take on throughout the day, I lift up His name and give Him thanks.
In all things acknowledge Him no matter what. In all things give praise, big or small, good or bad, singing praises and bowing to His magnificence. Nothing is too big, or too small for our God to take on…or to hear from His children’s lips. He wants the best for each of us. It’s important to speak with Him on all levels concerning decisions or direction; it is what He wants us to do. The preponderance of evidence to support this is in the Bible—His love letter to us.
As Jesus said in Matthew 7:7— Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you: Coming from Jesus we know it’s a given and it is true. Keep asking, keep seeking, and keep knocking—and while doing so, keep singing praises to His great and Holy name.
“Father, I thank You for Your love, dedication and patience. You are worthy of our love, worthy of our praise, I pray that others might receive the peace and blessings that comes from worshipping and believing in You, in Jesus name I pray, Amen.”
I LOVE YOU FATHER
