The Thankful Challenge Week Two: Giving Thanks

Give thanks to the Lord for He is good! His faithful love endures forever.
Psalm 118:1

The Thankful Challenge Week One has come to an end. How did you do? Did you thank God each day this week before you asked Him for something? Not an easy practice, is it?

Practice is exactly what it takes. Specialists tell us that in order for anything to become a habit, we must do it over and over again, at least 7 times or more! The more we do it, the better we become at it. Professionals who work with memorization and brain function say that repeating something 7 or more times to yourself out loud helps it stay in your memory.

We see in scripture the Israelites practicing this discipline as they lift their thanks to God through thick and thin.

The scripture I shared above in Psalm 118, is repeated throughout the old Testament again and again.

Give thanks to The Lord for He is good! His faithful love endures forever.
Psalm 118:1
1 Chronicles 16:34
Psalm 106:1
Psalm 107:1
Psalm 118:29
Psalm 136:1…

God’s people knew that when they were pleasing Him and even when they were not, they were to give thanks to The Lord.

Is it any different for you and I today?

Is God any different for you and I today?
NO and NO!
God is the same yesterday, today and tomorrow, and His faithful Love endures forever!

If the Israelites needed to thank God over and over, SO DO WE!

So let’s keep it up friends! Let’s continue to thank God for who He Is, what He has done, and what He will do!

After all,

  1. I am Thankful for the beauty I see this time of year. I love the colorful fall trees. I am even more thankful for the beauty I have seen in people, the generosity I’ve seen from friends and strangers. People coming together to help one another in a time of need is beautiful to see.
