(Psa 100:4 NKJV) Enter into His gates with thanksgiving, And into His courts with praise. Be thankful to Him, and bless His name.
It doesn’t matter whether we are in the season of feast or the season of famine, we can always find something to be thankful for.
God is a good God and no matter how many things we can find wrong with something, if we look closely we can find something good too. It may take a little more effort to find it sometimes, especially if we are always looking for the downside of things. It will take exercising our brains and our faith to look for the upside of things as well.
I’m not saying we shouldn’t notice the downside, but what I’m saying is we shouldn’t be so focused on always looking for it that we become negative all the time and never be thankful for the good that may be there.
Noticing the downside of things is really a way to know how to pray for something or a particular situation. Once we pray for it, we need to begin to rejoice and trust that God is faithful to answer our prayers.
Start thanking Him and praising Him today!
