I am thankful for encouraging scripture that teaches about the importance of a grateful heart. Saying you are grateful is just a word. Living with a grateful attitude is a daily intention that will change your heart towards Jesus and away from the world.
Actions of gratefulness are covered in love, unconditional gifting, and felt from the heart. Our animals do that well.
Make it a grateful day, every day.
A Psalm for giving thanks. Make a joyful noise to the Lord, all the earth! Serve the Lord with gladness! Come into his presence with singing! Know that the Lord, he is God! It is he who made us, and we are his; we are his people, and the sheep of his pasture. Enter his gates with thanksgiving, and his courts with praise! Give thanks to him; bless his name! For the Lord is good; his steadfast love endures forever, and his faithfulness to all generations. Psalm 100:1-5
