Thankfulness
by Max LucadoGratitude
comes
from
having
the
right
perspective.
It’s
being
able
to
look
at
what
you
have
and
being
thankful
for
that,
rather
than
longing
for
what
you
don’t
have.
Do
you
know
why
we
should
feel
grateful?
You
are
a
part
of
God’s
plan,
you
are
touched
by
God’s
tenderness,
and
you
are
a
victor
in
God’s
victory.
What
greater
blessing
could
there
be?
It’s
incredible
that
anyone
could
look
at
the
kindness
of
God
and
not
feel
any
emotion
of
gratitude.
Remember
the
Lord.
Remember
who
is
in
control.
Remember
His
goodness
in
the
past.
Remember
God’s
closeness
in
the
present.
Remember
His
power
for
the
future.
Father,I
want
to
see
you
and
know
you
better.
We
ask
you,
Father,
to
help
us
see
Jesus
and
to
deepen
our
faith
upon
seeing
him
more
clearly.
What If
What
if
God
couldn’t
take
the
time
to
bless
us
today
because
we
couldn’t
take
the
time
to
thank
Him
yesterday?
What
if
God
decided
to
stop
leading
us
tomorrow,
because
we
did
not
follow
Him
today?
What
if
God
took
away
the
Bible
tomorrow
because
we
would
not
read
it
today?
What
if
God
stopped
loving
and
caring
for
us
because
we
failed
to
love
and
care
for
others?
What
if
He
would
not
hear
us
today
because
we
would
not
listen
to
Him
yesterday?
What
if
God
met
our
needs
the
way
we
give
Him
our
lives?
O
Lord,
help
us
to
be
thankful
that
you
have
not
dealt
with
us
according
to
our
sins,
nor
punished
us
according
to
our
iniquities
(Psalm
103:10)
O,
give
thanks
to
the
Lord,
for
He
is
good!
For
His
mercy
endures
forever
Psalm
118:1
