Give Thanks

J.A. Matteson

An attitude of gratitude makes the heart merry; stinken thinkin will leave you sinkin. "Oh give thanks to the LORD, call upon His name; make known His deeds among the peoples" (Ps. 105:1). Admission of dependence upon the LORD is wisdom and a strong refuge; the proud will find himself cut off and vulnerable. Love experienced finds expression; where relationships are distant conversation is silenced. The occasions to give thanks are innumerable. The time to call upon the name of the LORD is now. The variety of ways to witness to the wonders of the LORD know no bounds. Surely goodness and mercy will follow the pilgrims of the LORD this day and forever more. Declare His faithfulness to all generations.
