Give thanks to the Lord, for he is good; his love endures forever.
Let those who fear the Lord say: “His love endures forever.”
It is better to take refuge in the Lord than to trust in man.
It is better to take refuge in the Lord than to trust in princes.
The Lord is my strength and my song; he has become my salvation.
I will not die but live, and will proclaim what the Lord has done.
The stone the builders rejected has become the capstone;
the Lord has done this, and it is marvelous in our eyes.
This is the day the Lord has made; let us rejoice and be glad in it.
Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord. From the house of the Lord we bless you.
Give thanks to the Lord, for he is good; his love endures forever. (Psalm 118:1, 4, 8, 9, 14, 17, 22-24, 26, 29 NIV84)
On our Thanksgiving holiday we can easily get wrapped up in the process.
There is food to prepare, and people coming and going; football games,
Black Friday sales, the reason we gather can be lost.
We have a God who delights in us, whose mind is always on us.
He desires, more than anything, for us to love Him as furiously as He loves us,
and to fear Him as a child fears a good father.
His goodness surrounds us, and we may be aware of so many things to thank our Abba for, and barely scratch the surface, never knowing the depth, height, width, or length of His love.
Beloved, make everyday, every moment of each day, Thanksgiving.
He is more than Worthy.
