To protect your thankfulness, you must remember that you reside in a fallen world, where blessings and sorrows intermingle freely. A constant focus on adversity defeats many Christians. They walk through a day that is brimming with beauty and brightness, seeing only the grayness of their thoughts. Neglecting the practice of giving thanks has darkened their minds. How precious are My children who remember to thank Me at all times. They can walk through the darkest days with Joy in their hearts because they know that the Light of My Presence is still shining on them. Rejoice in this day that I have made, for I am your steadfast Companion.
Psalm 118:24; Psalm 116:17
This is my mom's birthday and she passed away two years ago. I went to the park for where we spread her ashes and read this devotion today. My parents said Psalm 118:24 every day. One would say Today is the day the Lord has made and the other would say let us rejoice and be glad in it. Now my daddy and I try to say it as often as possible! These devotions are amazing and so God filled!
