How often do you thank God for all He does in your life? Saying thank you seems like a simple thing to say but it’s something that we usually don’t do as often as we are supposed to.
It is important that you make it a habit to give thanks to God for all that he does for you, not just on Thanksgiving Day, but every day. It doesn’t matter if you had a bad day, find something to be thankful for.
Note that every time Jesus prayed he begun by praising the Lord and giving thanks. We are admonished to do the same. Giving thanks helps us to remember everything the Lord does for us so that we can continue to trust in him.
There are things we see and give thanks to God for, and there are things we don’t see that the Lord still does for us. All of these things should be credited to God. Whenever you give thanks to God, remember to thank him for the things He protects you from that you are not even aware of.
Whatever occurs, we must always be grateful to the Lord since he is the only one who can replace whatever we lose. Here are a few prayers for thanksgiving day to help you thank God for everything he has done for you and your family this Thanksgiving Day.
