I Am Thankful
“Give thanks to the Lord, for he is good; his love endures forever.”
– Psalm 107:1
God Says You Are Thankful
Gratitude is at the heart of a joyful and faithful life. This verse reminds us to give thanks to the Lord, not just for what He does, but for who He is—good, loving, and unchanging. His love endures forever, and that’s reason enough to be thankful every day.
The Bible shows us that thankfulness brings us closer to God. It shifts our focus from what we lack to the blessings He has given us. “Give thanks in all circumstances; for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus” (1 Thessalonians 5:18). Even in tough times, choosing gratitude reminds you of God’s goodness and strengthens your trust in Him.
Living with thankfulness creates a ripple effect, blessing not only your life but also the lives of others. A grateful heart spreads joy, encourages positivity, and helps you appreciate the beauty of God’s presence in every moment.
