Read I am thankful for God's perfect timing

In the journey of my life, I have come to believe in God’s timing being perfect. He has a time for everything, a season activity under the heavens. He makes all things beautiful in His time. I am thankful I can trust in the Lord with all my heart and lean not on my own understanding; in all my ways I submit to His kingship, and He makes my paths straight.

At the name of Jesus, every knee will bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth, and every tongue declares that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father. I choose to bow my knee now in gratitude.

I thank God that trusting in the God of all hope fills me with all peace and hope and joy, so I can overflow with hope by the power of Holy Spirit. As I trust in the Lord and do good, I live safely in the land and prosper. As I take delight in the Lord, He gives me my heart’s desires. But I must commit everything I do to the Lord and trust Him, and He helps me. He will make my innocence radiate like the dawn, and the justice of my cause will shine like the noonday sun.

I thank God He is Immanuel - God with us. He’s always with us. I need to be with Him. I will be still in the presence of the Lord and wait patiently for Him to act. Not worrying about evil people who prosper or fretting about their wicked schemes, in repentance and rest is my salvation, in quietness and trust is my strength.

I will not become weary in doing good, for at the proper time, I will reap a harvest if I do not give up. I know those who trust in the Lord will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint.

I thank God for His grace so I can be joyful in hope, patient in affliction, faithful in prayer. I know the vision awaits its appointed time; it hastens to the end—it will not lie. If it seems slow, I will wait for it; it will surely come; it will not delay. The Father knows the plans He has for me, plans to prosper me and not to harm me, plans to give me hope and a future. He is working all things together for the good. God is so good!

God is teaching me to be content, whatever the circumstances. I know what it is to be in need, and I know what it is to have plenty. I am learning the secret of being content in any and every situation, whether well fed or hungry, whether living in plenty or in want. The secret is I can do all this through Him who gives me strength.

Today, I am thankful that Jesus is Lord and I can trust in God’s timing. Through patience, faith, perseverance, and surrender, I find peace and hope in knowing that His plans are always perfect. In every season of waiting, I believe God is working behind the scenes, orchestrating everything according to His divine timing.

Reflection Questions to ask Holy Spirit:

  1. How can I deepen my trust in Your perfect timing and surrender my own understanding?
  2. In what ways can I find peace and hope in the seasons of waiting, knowing that You are working?
  3. What steps can I take to cultivate patience, faith, perseverance, and surrender in my life, so that I can experience the joy and contentment that comes from trusting in Your plan?

Read I show appreciation for what I feel thankful for

I wake up and choose to be thankful, for I know this leads to feeling gratitude. Savouring small pleasures, I notice when a neighbour takes a minute to greet me with a smile and chat about the weather. I think about how delicious my first cup of coffee tastes.

I keep a journal. I write about the pleasant things that happen to me each day. This is the day that the Lord has made. I will rejoice and be glad in it. I’ve promised it once, and I’ll promise it again: I will obey your righteous regulations.

I show my appreciation and I’m not selfish. I don’t try to impress others because I want to be humble, thinking of others before I think of myself. Not looking out only for my own interests, I take an interest in others, too.

I write thank-you letters and try to make them creative and memorable, so my friends and family know how much I appreciate their thoughtfulness. When possible, I thank others in person too. As I think about how much others have helped me, and I try to contribute something back. I pay it forward as well and look to do something nice for a stranger whenever I can. I know God loves a cheerful giver.

I give thanks for my relationships and give thanks to God for them whenever I think of them. I ask God to give us all hearts to know Him—who to know is life eternal.

I let my spouse know how much I count on their love and support. I hug them whenever I can. A blessing too early in the morning can be considered a curse. So I love and honour them. I tell my children that I am proud of them for trying, regardless of the results. I encourage them to find out what pleases the Lord.

I show my appreciation to God. I give thanks for salvation and I give thanks for my health. He forgives all my sins and heals all my diseases and redeems me from death and crowns me with love and tender mercies. He fills my life with good things. My youth is renewed like the eagle’s! My appreciation for God turns to praise.

I praise him with my whole heart. I will praise the name of God with a song; and will magnify Him with thanksgiving. I will praise Him every day; yes, I will praise Him forever. Great is the Lord! He is most worthy of praise! No one can measure his greatness. Let each generation tell its children of your mighty acts; let them proclaim your power.

Today, I choose to be thankful; I cultivate a sense of gratitude and I plan to show my appreciation from the moment that I wake up. I notice the good things in my life and acknowledge the many acts of kindness that I have received. My boundary lines have fallen on pleasant places.

Reflection Questions to ask Holy Spirit:

  1. How can I actively cultivate a sense of gratitude and choose to be thankful each day?
  2. In what ways can I show my appreciation to others and express humility in my interactions?
  3. How can I deepen my appreciation for Your blessings in my life and express gratitude for Your love and provision?

God's generosity

I celebrate God's generosity

“For if you praise God only in the spirit, how can those who don’t understand you praise God along with you? How can they join you in giving thanks when they don’t understand what you are saying? You will be giving thanks very well, but it won’t strengthen the people who hear you.” 1 Corinthians 14:16-17 (GW)

Read I celebrate God's generosity

Looking back on my journey, I am filled with gratitude for the abundant blessings that have been poured out upon me. My boundary lines have fallen in pleasant places. The Lord is good and stronghold in the times of trouble. I will tell of Your goodness; all day long I will speak.

In times of uncertainty, I am reminded of the birds of the air, who do not toil or worry about their provision. If God cares for them, how much more will He provide for me, His beloved child? I know that my Heavenly Father will meet all my needs according to His glorious riches.

I know that as I seek first His kingdom and righteousness, everything I need will be added in as well. Every good and perfect gift I receive is a reminder of His love and generosity. God invites me to delight in Him, promising to fulfill the desires of my heart. As I transform more and more into the image of His Son, my desires become more and more His desires.

As I seek His presence and find joy in Him, He blesses me beyond measure, exceeding my expectations. And as I honour the Lord with my resources and give cheerfully, I witness the overflowing abundance that He graciously pours into my life. With each act of giving, I experience His promise of pressed down, shaken-together blessings.

When I give generously and sacrificially, I am met with an outpouring of blessings that cannot be contained. The floodgates of heaven open wide, and God’s goodness overflows into every area of my life. Through each act of giving, I am reminded of the cheerful heart that God loves. He delights in my willingness to share His blessings with others, and in return, He refreshes and prospers me.

In awe of God’s power and love, I am reminded that He can do immeasurably more than I could ever ask or imagine. His generosity knows no bounds, bringing glory to His name throughout all generations. As I refresh others, I am refreshed in return. As I bless others, I get blessed.

God’s faithfulness is evident as He prospers those who choose to be generous, reminding me of the joy found in selfless giving. Tasting and experiencing the goodness of the Lord, I take refuge in Him. Blessed is the one who seeks shelter in His unfailing love and finds satisfaction in His abundant provision.

Today, I celebrate God’s generosity and give thanks for His continuous blessings in my life. He is faithful to provide for all my needs and delights in pouring out His love upon me.

Reflection Questions to ask Holy Spirit:

  1. How has Your generosity and provision been evident in My life’s journey?
  2. In what ways can I cultivate a heart of cheerful giving and honour You with My resources?
  3. How can I continue to seek Your presence, delight in You, and align my desires with Your own, knowing that You promises to fulfill the desires of my heart?

Read My life overflows with gratitude for God and appreciation of others

In the depths of my soul, I have found solace and strength. The Lord is my Shepherd, and I lack nothing. His guidance has led me through the darkest valleys, and His love has provided me with abundant blessings. I will be still and know He is God.

Through Christ who strengthens me, I have faced challenges head-on, knowing that His power is made perfect in my weakness. He empowers me to accomplish every good work prompted by faith. His grace has carried me through trials and empowered me to persevere. His grace is sufficient for me.

In every circumstance, I have seen that God works all things together for good for those who love Him. Even in moments of adversity, I am reminded that His plans for me are greater than any setback I may face. Since God is for me, who can be against me? No weapon formed against me will prosper. Every test becomes a testimony of His goodness to me.

Appreciation fills my heart as I cherish the peace that Christ brings, unifying me with others in a bond of love. It is through Him I can appreciate the unique qualities and contributions of those around me. We bear one another’s burdens. We consider each other before we think of ourselves. My life is enriched by the acts of kindness and support shown by loved ones and strangers alike. Their selflessness has inspired me to extend love and compassion to those in need. We are doers of the Word and not hearers only.

Through acts of service and love towards others, my appreciation is expressed tangibly. We are kind and compassionate towards others, forgiving as the Lord forgave us. We forgive each other with our whole heart. Gratitude fills my being as I witness the transformative power of forgiveness in relationships and experience reconciliation firsthand.

Today, my life overflows with gratitude for God’s steadfast love, wisdom, and grace. And I am deeply appreciative of the people around me who have shown kindness, support, forgiveness, and love. My heart overflows with gratitude as I offer songs of thanksgiving and praise for the countless ways God has shown His faithfulness in my life.

Reflection Questions to ask Holy Spirit:

  1. How has Your guidance led me through the darkest valleys in my life?
  2. In what ways has Your grace carried me through trials and empowered me to persevere?
  3. How have acts of kindness and support from loved ones and strangers enriched my life and inspired me to extend love and compassion to others?

Read A humble heart is a thankful heart, a thankful heart is a humble heart

I will give thanks to the Lord with my whole heart; I will recount all of Your wonderful deeds. Gratitude flows from the depths of my soul, acknowledging the goodness of God’s will and works.

A humble heart is a thankful heart. It is by grace I have been saved through faith. And this is not my own doing; it is the gift of God. A humble heart acknowledges salvation as a gift and expresses gratitude for God’s unmerited favour.

I trust in You with all my heart and I don’t lean on my own understanding; in all my ways I seek first Your kingdom to come and Your will to be done, and You make my paths straight. A humble heart relinquishes control and trusts in God’s guidance. I do nothing out of selfish ambition or vain conceit. Rather, in humility, I value others above myself. He has shown me what is good and what He requires of me—to act justly and to love mercy and to walk humbly with my God. A humble heart doesn’t demand its own way.

When pride comes, then comes disgrace, but with humility comes wisdom. The fear of the Lord is instruction in wisdom, and humility comes before honour. I humble myself before God and towards others and trust that He will lift me up in due time and for His purpose. As part of God’s chosen people, holy and dearly loved, I clothe myself with compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness, and patience. I humble myself with thanksgiving.

A thankful heart is a humble heart. O Lord, You have examined my heart and know everything about me. You know, when I sit down or stand up and You know my thoughts even when I’m far away. You see me when I travel and when I rest at home and You know everything I do before I do it and what I am going to say even before I say it, Lord. And You go before me and follow me and You place Your hand of blessing on my head. Such knowledge is too wonderful for me, too great for me to understand!

Today, I am reminded that a humble heart is indeed a thankful heart. And a thankful heart remains ever humble before our gracious God.

Reflection Questions to ask Holy Spirit:

  1. How can I cultivate a humble heart that acknowledges and expresses gratitude for God’s unmerited favour?
  2. In what ways can I relinquish control and trust in God’s guidance instead of relying solely on my own understanding?
  3. How can I actively show humility by valuing others above myself and seeking to act justly, love mercy, and walk humbly with my God?

Read My day begins and ends with gratitude

As I wake up each morning, I am filled with gratitude for the new day ahead. This is the day that the LORD has made; I will rejoice and be glad in it! He has ordained all the days of my life before one of them came to be. I am in awe of the greatness and goodness of my God. I take a moment to reflect on the blessings in my life and offer thanks to God. Knowing everything God created is good and nothing is to be rejected if it’s received with thanksgiving; I thank Him for the warmth of my bed, my family—who love me—and every blessing He has entrusted to me.

Throughout the day, I strive to practice gratitude in every circumstance. I know I need to give thanks in all situations; for this is God’s will for me. I enter His gates with thanksgiving and His courts with praise and I so I pray and for His kingdom to come and His will to be done in my everyday world as it is in heaven.

In moments of stress or worry, I worry about nothing, pray about everything and thank Him in all things. I don’t ignore my problem or pretend they don’t exist, but I pray about them and exchange my problems for His peace. The peace of God, which transcends all understanding, guards my heart and my mind in Christ Jesus.

As the day progresses, I encounter challenges and opportunities for growth. I’ve learned and am learning to trust in the Lord with all my heart and to not lean not on my own understanding. In all my ways, I acknowledge Him, and He makes my paths straight.

Before I go to bed, I reflect on the day’s events and give thanks for the lessons learned. I give thanks to the LORD, for He is good. His love endures forever. As I close my eyes, I find peace in knowing that God is always with me. He goes before me and I can be strong and courageous. I don’t have to be afraid or discouraged. The LORD my God is with me wherever I go!

Today, whatever I do, whether in word or deed, I do it all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through Him. My day begins and ends with gratitude, and gratitude guards my heart in the day-to-day of every day.

Reflection Questions to ask Holy Spirit:

  1. How can I cultivate a spirit of gratitude throughout my day, even in the midst of challenges?
  2. In what ways can I practice trust and reliance on God, especially when faced with uncertainty or difficulties?

Read A thankful heart is a faithful heart

In the day-to-day of my everyday life, I realize the importance of having a thankful heart. It is through gratitude that I can truly appreciate the blessings bestowed upon me. These blessings I respond to in faith by being faithful to them. I am faithful to my family, my work, my church, and ultimately, my God.

I honour my father and mother so that it may be well with me and so I may live long on the earth. A friend loves at all times, and a sibling is born to help in time of need. I give thanks for them and am faithful to them. I honour my spouse and love them. Being patient and kind, not jealous or boastful or proud or rude, is a choice I make to love and honour them. I do not demand my own way and do my best to not be irritable. And I keep no record of being wronged and rejoice whenever the truth wins out. I never give up and I never lose faith and I am always hopeful, and endure—God helping me—through every circumstance. I am faithful to those God has entrusted to me and blessed me with.

I am faithful to receive a living through the gifts, talents and abilities God has blessed me with. Gratitude for these gifts opens the door to use them with excellence. Whatever I do, I work with my whole heart as unto the Lord. I am not slothful in zeal, but fervent in spirit, working hard, so I will not be a burden to anyone. I make it my ambition to lead a quiet life and work with my hands. The favour of the Lord my God is upon me and He establishes the work of my hands.

I don’t give up meeting together, but I consider how to stir up others and be stirred up by others towards love and good works. Where two or three have gathered together in His name, He is there. I am faithful to encourage and build others up, and don't neglect to ask for prayer and help from them. How good and pleasant it is for people to gather in harmony! I am faithful for as long as it depends on me, to be at peace with everyone.

I know Jesus said, “If you want to be my disciple, you must, by comparison, hate everyone else—your father and mother, wife and children, brothers and sisters—yes, even your own life. Otherwise, you cannot be my disciple.” I need to love Him more than my earliest love, my nearest love, and my dearest love. As I am faithful to God, I am faithful to them. As I am faithful to them, I am faithful to God.

A thankful heart is a faithful heart. Gratitude transforms my perspective and deepens my relationships with God and with others. By being faithful to my family, work, church, and—most importantly—to God, I can cultivate a heart filled with gratitude.

Today, I find strength, joy, and purpose in every step of my journey and remember a thankful heart is a faithful heart.

Reflection Questions to ask Holy Spirit:

  1. How can I cultivate a heart filled with gratitude in my day-to-day life, allowing it to deepen my relationships with God and others?
  2. In what ways am I being faithful to the blessings bestowed upon me, such as my family, work, church, and ultimately, God?
  3. How can I ensure that building a relationship with You remains my primary focus?

Read I treasure life’s little moments

Every day, I wake up and remind myself that this is the day that the Lord has made, so I will rejoice and be glad in it. It’s a reminder that every day is a gift, a new opportunity to experience life’s little moments that make it all worthwhile.

In the hustle and bustle of life, I often find myself caught up in the whirlwind, forgetting to appreciate these brief moments so full of meaning. But then I remember that for everything there is a season, and a time for every matter under heaven. All things, big and small, are part of God’s grand design. He empowers me to accomplish every good work prompted by faith. He has given me everything I need for life and godliness.

One of my favourite moments is the quiet solitude of early morning, just as the world is beginning to stir. It’s during these moments that I am still and know that He is God. It’s in these peaceful moments that I feel closest to Him.

I also treasure those moments spent with loved ones. Whether we’re sharing a meal, laughing together, or simply sitting in silence, these moments remind me that where two or three are gathered in His name, He is here. In these moments, I feel His presence strongly.

And then there are those moments of personal struggle. During these times, it’s hard to see the silver lining. But I remember that for those who love God, all things work together for the good and He will make me more and more like Jesus through this. Even in the darkest of times, He is with me. I choose to trust Him and cast my cares upon Him because He cares for me.

Sometimes, it’s easy to lose sight of the beauty in life’s little moments, especially when we face challenges. But I remember to trust in the Lord with all my heart and I’ve learned to lean not on my own understanding. In all my ways, I acknowledge Him, and He makes my paths straight.

Today, I choose to give thanks in all circumstances, knowing this is God’s will for me in Christ Jesus. Each day is filled with countless little moments to be grateful for. And for each of these moments, I give thanks.

Reflection Questions to ask Holy Spirit:

  1. How can I better incorporate praise and worship into my daily routine to remind myself that each day is a gift to be treasured?
  2. When faced with struggles, how can remember that all things work together for good for those who love God?
  3. In what ways can I cultivate gratitude in all circumstances in my life?
