thankful-ness

Psalm 95:1 Come, let us sing to the LORD!

  Let us shout joyfully to the Rock of our salvation.


2 Let us come to him with thanksgiving.

  Let us sing psalms of praise to him.


3 For the LORD is a great God,

  a great King above all gods.


4 He holds in his hands the depths of the earth

  and the mightiest mountains.


5 The sea belongs to him, for he made it.

  His hands formed the dry land, too.



6 Come, let us worship and bow down.

  Let us kneel before the LORD our maker,


7   for he is our God.

We are the people he watches over,

  the flock under his care.



I know that we all have it tough sometimes.

At the same time we aren't thankful enough for what we do have.

Perhaps it is a greater virtue to be thankful for what we have rather than being sorrowful for what we don't have or what we've lost.

Does that last sentence make sense?

As we approach our national holiday of thanksgiving, maybe we should ask ourselves if we TRULY are thankful for what we have, what God has done for us, & how He continues to "watch over" us.

Think about it...
