Psalm 107:23-32
Living Bible (TLB)
It's easy to remember to ask for things. This time of the year, Santas are everywhere, letting kids ask them what they want for Christmas. You don't see too many Santas hanging around in January, available for kids to thank for receiving their Christmas gifts.
I don't know that our culture is big on gratitude. We like receiving, but the act of giving thanks is often forgotten.
When we pray, it can be helpful to keep track of the things we ask for, that we might remember to give thanks when prayers are answered, when blessings are poured out, when God responds to our prayers. It takes a faithful heart to remember to give thanks, but gratitude should form the very core of our being as Christians.
Have a Merry & Blessed Christmas!! I'll pick up with these again in the new year.
