Things to be Thankful For

God is so good to us. His blessings are limitless. There are so many things we have to be thankful for. My list is long.

First of all, there is the gift of Jesus, God’s Son. The hope that we have in Him, our sins are forgiven, and we will spend eternity in heaven.

I am thankful for family and friends. I am thankful for the food we eat, the clothes we wear, and every other material blessing God has given me.

But if I am honest, one of the greatest gifts we have all been given is mentioned in Psalm 68:19. “Blessed be the Lord, who daily bears our burden.”

Just the thought of that is so amazing. We don’t have to carry our burdens. He will! And it isn’t just for today, but for tomorrow, and next week, and next year and so on. He daily carries our burdens. And our part is to just praise Him and trust Him.
