God’s Limitless Love
I think we all need a reminder once in a while about how great God’s love is for us. His love is boundless. It knows no limits. It exceeds your every expectation. His love is beyond measure. It’s eternal! His love for you is forgiving. He loves you with an everlasting love. A love that does not quit when you’re weak. A love that does not diminish when your faith is wavering. A love that does not let go.
Hold Me Jesus
God is our refuge and strength, an ever-present help in trouble. (Psalm 46:1)
Give Thanks
Give thanks to the Lord, call on his name; make known among the nations what he has done. (1 Chronicles 16:8)
Enter with Thanksgiving
Great is the Lord and most worthy of praise; his greatness no one can fathom. (Psalm 145:3)
Thanksgiving is not something that should happen in just November for Christians. When we read a verse like the one above we should realize that thanksgiving should take place in our hearts daily. God’s greatness is too much for us to fathom. He has done so many wonderful things in our lives and our hearts should wake up each morning ready to offer thanksgiving to Him. In fact, the next verse shares exactly that with us.
“Enter his gates with thanksgiving and his courts with praise; give thanks to him and praise his name.” (Psalm 100:4)
This verse puts it so clearly. Enter his gates with thanksgiving. God calls us to be people who exclaim the glory of His name in everything that we do and say. Do people know you are thankful for your job? There are plenty of people out of work right now, so complaining won’t get you very far. Do people know that you are thankful for your spouse? Your commitment in marriage is a witness to those around you. Do people know that you are thankful for your salvation? You can’t convince anyone that Jesus is good for them, if you don’t show them the joy you have inside of you. This goes for everything! Why am I convinced of this? Here is one verse that shows me all that I have in God!
