Shout for joy to the LORD, all the earth. Worship the LORD with gladness; come before him with joyful songs. Know that the LORD is God. It is he, who made us, and we are his; we are his people, the sheep of his pasture. Enter his gates with thanksgiving and his courts with praise; give thanks to him and praise his name. For the LORD is good and his love endures forever; his faithfulness continues through all generations." Psalm 100:1-5 

Often we don’t embrace a heart of gratefulness. We seek God and ask Him to provide for our needs. But in missed opportunities to simply say, "Thank you", we neglect to begin our prayers with praise. 

God is worthy of ALL of our love. He shows how to recognize the gift of His presence. He opens our eyes to welcome each new day and gives us strength to keep on going... 

Why would we not praise Him for daily gifts of purpose? Our loving Father provides everything we need! We must never become too busy to lift our eyes, humble our hearts and simply say, “Thank you, Father for ALL You have done! " 

Dear God, THANK YOU for waking us in opportunity to embrace the love of Your faithfulness. We will honor You with prayers of our PRAISE as we humble our hearts and remember why we need Your strength. Arm us with everything we need to rise. And help us remember why YOU are deserving of our love, EVERY SINGLE DAY of our lives. Thank you, Father, thank you! Amen
