Be cheerful no matter what; pray all the time; thank God no matter what happens. This is the way God wants you who belong to Christ Jesus to live. 1 Thessalonians 5:18 MSG

The mighty Creator of heaven and earth knows the plans He has for our days. There is purpose in ALL He provides. He shows us how to receive His love EVERY moment of our lives, as we learn to faithfully TRUST.

Life can be challenging when we don’t know what will happen next. But, in moments to remind us who is working in our lives, Christ shows how to handle our days. He blesses the heart of our faithfulness and reminds us how it feels to be grateful!

Jesus opens the eyes of our hearts. And, while we're held in peace, He helps us find strength from the Father. He reminds us to put our HOPE in Him and BELIEVE in the timing of His will.

If God can create heaven, earth and EVERY living thing, surely He will create desire in us to be grateful. Let us praise Him for waking to another day of life and find reason in our hearts to love Him even more!

Dear God, Thank you for reminding us to take time to notice Your awesome displays of good. You provide HOPE in every season and help us feel the power of Your awesome grace. Fill us with a heart of praise and help us remember who provides what we need. We will honor You and gratefully proclaim, “It's a brand new day", as You open our eyes and arm us with the faithfulness of Your never ending love. Thank you for waking us to ALL You provide!" Amen
