“O give thanks to the Lord, for He is good; For His lovingkindness is everlasting.”
1 Chronicles 16:34 NASB ©

This verse appears several times in the Bible. Therefore, it must hold an important truth. It challenges us to have an attitude of gratitude, not because of what is going on within our lives or our world, but because of who God is. We sometimes get caught up in our own little world. Everything must revolve around us. We need to stop and look at the big picture. We must remember who God is. God is good and His love is forever

Lord Jesus, I am amazed at Your goodness and lovingkindness. Help me to show appreciation to You by demonstrating Your love in my life.
