It is good to give thanks to the Lord, and to sing praises to Your name, O Most High. Psalm 92:1

Before you sit down to eat a meal, do you thank God for providing the food? That seems to still be a common occurrence. I am so blessed when I see a person or family take a minute to pray, thanking God for the food He has blessed them with.

But what about the other 23 hours and 57 minutes of the day? Do you thank God for all He has done for you? From the sleep He provided, the bed you slept in, you woke up this morning and hopefully preparing to go to a job waiting on you. From your friends and family, to your clothing, vehicle….the list is endless. Trust me friend, God has blessed you with those provisions of life.

Your daily life and what happens in those 24 hour blocks of time have purpose. “For you, Lord, have made me glad through Your work; I will triumph in the works of Your hands.” Psalm 92:4. Every minute of the day, God is watching over you, shielding you from certain evils, blessing you with things to sustain. Anything that comes your way is what He has allowed and with a purpose and plan to grow you, making you more like Him. Thank Him for all He does in your life, He has your best interest in mind.

Today, I encourage you to go through this day thanking God for everything. It just takes one second of acknowledgement. When you sprinkle your day with brief conversations with the Lord, it opens your eyes to His hand working in and through you. It takes your eyes of the chaos of this world and lets you see God is real and He wants to be in every aspect of your life. Acknowledge Him today in everything and find those little blessings shower down from Heaven upon you. Say thanks today! God bless!
