Read Psalm 100.
A Psalm often read at Thanksgiving; it encourages us to live a life of gratitude. However, I learned this Psalm in Vacation Bible School when I was either in the fourth or fifth grade. It was our opening passage and set the tone for the day. We began each day in a rambunctious joy and worshiped God with thanksgiving. I cannot read this passage without those thoughts and emotions surfacing to my remembrance. It “stuck” in my heart as I hope it will yours.
It is good to remember that God is our creator and gives us all we have. He is good and dependable. Of course, we will worship Him with thanksgiving and praise each and every day.
Gratitude is not a season - it is a daily response to a loving and generous Father God.
Personal Worship Option:
Spend some time entering joyfully into God’s presence. Reflect on His faithfulness. How will you encourage the next generation to live a life of gratitude?
