Serve the LORD with gladness;
Come before His presence with singing.
Know that the LORD, He is God;
It is He who has made us and not we ourselves;
We are His people and the sheep of His pasture.
Enter into His gates with thanksgiving,
And into His courts with praise.
Be thankful to Him and bless His name.
For the LORD is good;
His mercy is everlasting,
And His truth endures to all generations.
Psalm 100, NKJV
There are lots of things that are good about God, but I have to admit that His mercy is one of things I am most thankful for. It springs from His boundless love and amazing grace, and is wonderfully new every morning. It is available to the tempted and the tried, and also to the fallen and the flawed. His mercy is what keeps us alive when we deserve wrath. His mercy is what sees us through until we have reached that place where He is waiting for us. His mercy is forever and always, everlasting and eternal, wonderful, bountiful, more than enough to deal with a multitude of sins. I'm glad they can deal with mine.
Tonight, I'm thankful for sweet fellowship with the Lord in prayer throughout this day. It's been a great day and full of His presence.
I'm thankful for sweet fellowship with my mother, who has worked hard with me and for me today. I really appreciate her help.
I'm thankful for the sweet fellowship I'm going to have tomorrow with my friends, my brothers and sisters in Christ. They have been so encouraging this week, and we've seen God do some amazing things!
What are you thankful for today?
