Gratitude is acknowledging God in all things, his faithfulness in creation bringing all of us from one man. But how do acknowledge God in all tings? Psalm 100:1-5 is a Psalm for giving thanks. "Make a joyful noise to the Lord, all the earth! Serve the Lord with gladness! Come into his presence with singing! Know that the Lord, he is God! It is he who made us, and we are his; we are his people, and the sheep of his pasture. Enter his gates with thanksgiving, and his courts with praise! Give thanks to him; bless his name! For the Lord is good; his steadfast love endures forever, and his faithfulness to all generations."
Offer thanksgiving to God and dedicating your way rightly gives you eyes that see God's salvation. "The one who offers thanksgiving as his sacrifice glorifies me; to one who orders his way rightly I will show the salvation of God!” - Psalm 50:23
Gratitude shows what you treasure. "For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also."- Matthew 6:21
The Lord is my strength and my shield; in him my heart trusts, and I am helped; my heart exults, and with my song I give thanks to him. - Psalm 28:7
Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly, teaching and admonishing one another in all wisdom, singing psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, with thankfulness in your hearts to God. - Colossians 3:16
