Give thanks with an open heart; give thanks

Give thanks with an open heart; give thanks with all your heart, give thanks for all the wonderful things in your life.

September 18, 2024

Give thanks with an open heart; give thanks with all your heart, give thanks for all the wonderful things in your life. When we give thanks it means thankfulness, praise, and offering. When we give thanks in the truest sense of the biblical word, we offer God our praises and acknowledge Him for He is the Giver of all things. Therefore, let us give thanks to the LORD, for He is King of kings, Lord of lords mighty and wonderful is He. For God’s word is a lamp to our feet and a light to our path. He is our all in all. Praise His name, for it is good to give thanks to the LORD, to sing praises to His name. For our LORD is whom we take refuge in He is our shield, and the horn of our salvation, our stronghold. Let us call upon the LORD, who is worthy to be praised. And let us be still and know that the LORD is God it is He that has made us and given us life. How blessed we are, so let us glorify our LORD and praise His holy name. Praise the LORD. Give thanks. God Bless. Amen.
