JUST THANK HIM

“O give thanks unto the God of heaven: for his mercy endureth for ever.”

Psalms 136:26 KJV

If you are a parent and your children have ever thanked you for something without asking for something, you know how happy that made you.  It is the same with our Heavenly Father.  How we must hurt Him and break His heart when we ask Him for things and never just thank Him for all He has done for us.

Have you ever prayed and said “Heavenly Father, I love You.  Thank You for all You have done for me” without asking for something?  It is time we stop asking for things all the time and start praising and thanking God for being a compassionate tender loving and protective Heavenly Father.

I think sometime we treat our Heavenly Father and our precious Saviour like they are puppets.  We put them on the shelf and only take Them down when we want something.  Have you told God and Jesus how much You love them today without asking for something?  They want to know that we love Them.

Heavenly Father, please forgive me for the times when I have neglected to praise and thank You for all You have done for me and for all You do for me every day.  I do love You, Heavenly Father and I appreciate You.  I love You, precious Saviour.  I love You, Holy Spirit.  In Jesus’ Name, I pray.  Amen.
