Happy Thanksgiving to you! I hope that you have thought about the abundance of blessings in your life for we have much to be thankful for! Since the beginning of November I have tried to bring you something each day to meditate upon relative to maintaining a thankful heart. It really is endless when you think about how God is so rich in His blessings toward us. I love that His eyes miss nothing in my life. He is concerned about the smallest of details. Yet my human nature rises up at times when my mind is not renewed with His Word, and I may be tempted to carry care about a problem. Oh that we would stay mindful that He is able to take care of us.
Matthew 6:27-29 (AMP)
And who of you by worrying can add one hour to [the length of] his life? And why are you worried about clothes? See how the lilies and wildflowers of the field grow; they do not labor nor do they spin [wool to make clothing], yet I say to you that not even Solomon in all his glory and splendor dressed himself like one of these.”
This scripture reminds us of God’s loving care and how He watches over us. He is there to provide for us all that we need in any particular time. Think about it…. When you need wisdom…The Lord will provide. When you need strength…The Lord will provide. When you need direction…The Lord will provide. On this Thanksgiving Day, let us praise the living God for His awesome works and how He has shown Himself to be the Shepherd that takes care of everything, therefore we shall not want. God is good all the time…all the time God is good!
