Psalm 100
1 Make a joyful noise unto the LORD, all ye lands.
2 Serve the LORD with gladness:
come before his presence with singing.
3 Know ye that the LORD he is God:
it is he that hath made us, and not we ourselves;
we are his people, and the sheep of his pasture.
4 Enter into his gates with thanksgiving,
and into his courts with praise:
be thankful unto him,and bless his name.
5 For the LORD is good;
his mercy is everlasting;
and his truth endureth to all generations.
I love this song of praise, giving God the glory for all that He has done. Many times in our life, we forget to stop and thank God, for all that we have been given. I was talking to a friend of mine and she reminded of how much we have to be thankful for. She is living without water in a house right now, but is thankful to have a place to live. Like she said you can go to a friends house and take a shower. You can get water to flush the the commode with in jugs, and you can buy bottled water to drink. God has provided her with a place to live, and she is warm. She sets the perfect example being thankful. We may not have everything but God makes sure we have everything we need. The amazing part is that she just got a letter that by the first of November she will have a new house to move into. Like she said the events that have taken place make her appreciate all that God has done for her even more. After I got off the phone with her, we realized our heat had went out. Tried to call the repairman no answer. I prayed for God to fix it, and sure enough, Our Father in Heaven delivered as He always does. It is suppose to be in the 30's tonight and He knew we needed heat. God is awesome I want to praise Him for EVERYTHING that we have been blessed with. For electric,gas, food, water, clothing, but most of all His only begotten Son Jesus Christ. There are many more things that I am thankful for but I could write for years and still I would leave something out. I am also thankful for the love God bestows upon us. I am thankful for the wonderful family that I have been blessed with. We have so much to be thankful for let us sing God's praise in Thanksgiving every single day.Thank You Father, for fixing our heat, and for fixing our car, and for mending our hearts when they have been broken.
Great Blessings
Dear Lord, you have done so much for me
I haven't done much for you as I can see
You have blessed me so greatly, and asked so little in return
No matter what I have needed, large or small, you have always made it your concern
When it seemed that things were going so wrong
Lord, you stood beside me and made me strong
When I needed food, shelter, or love
It was always provided from my Heavenly Father above
Dear Lord, what can I do for you , let Thy will be done
Let me be an obedient servant, and follow the example set by your only Son
Let me do Thy will, not mine
Let me follow the path you need me to find
I know the road may be long, and rough at times to travel
I know you will pick me up Lord, if I stumble in the gravel
Lead me the way I need to go, show me what to do
Let my light shine for you, so someone else can see it too
Thank you for every blessing, there are so many, I could never count them all
Dear Lord, you know my every need, you always catch me before I fall
To you Lord I owe it all
