Is yours a life of gratefulness? There is so much for which we should be thankful to Him. I encourage you to not lose sight of that in the midst of the troubled world in which we live.

The Easter Brothers, a widely know bluegrass gospel group wrote a song in 1975, with the following title, “Thank You Lord, For Your Blessings on Me.” I encourage you to read and reflect on the following lyrics:

“As the world looks upon me as I struggle along, and they say I have nothing, but they are so wrong; In my heart I’m rejoicing and how I wish they could see, Thank you Lord for your blessings on me.

I know I’m not wealthy, and these clothes are not new, and I don’t have much money, but Lord I have you; and to me that’s all that matters, though the world may not see, Thank you Lord, for your blessings on me.”

The chorus of the song was this:

“There’s a roof above me, I’ve a good place to sleep, there’s food on my table, and shoes on my feet; you gave me your love, Lord, and a fine family, Thank you Lord for your blessings on me.”

I encourage you to read and meditate on the following verses:

1 Thessalonians 5:18

Psalm 103:1-5

Is yours a life of gratefulness?
