Thanks...

As I was perusing the Psalms for words of thanksgiving, I came across this question.

"What can I render unto the Lord for all His benefits towards me?" Psalm 116:12 KJV
The NIV records it this way. "How can I repay the Lord for all His goodness to me? The BBE reads, "What may I give to the Lord for all the good things which he has done for me?"

The question, no matter how you ask it, has a simple answer. For all that Christ has done for you and me, we need only to receive Jesus as our Savior and praise His name among His people (116:13,14). Choosing Jesus will show our thanksgiving for His never-ending love for us.

In this season of thanksgiving, let Jesus know how thankful you are for Him by loving Him with all your heart, soul and mind (Matthew 22:37). That's what Jesus wants most from us!

Thank you Lord Jesus for loving us to the point that You died for our sins so that we might receive forgiveness of our sins and through a relationship with You, we can know the Father and have victory and claim the promise of eternity with You. Thank you for Your amazing love and sacrifice. Thank you for our hope. In Jesus' name. Amen

Assurance

Psalms 37: 23-24
23) The steps of a good man are ordered by the LORD: and he delighteth in his way.
24) Though he fall, he shall not be utterly cast down: for the LORD upholdeth him with his hand. (KJV)

What a promise to the faithful!
What an encouragement to the faithful!
What a comfort to the faithful!
What a reason to be faithful!
What a Friend Jesus is to the faithful!

Lord, you assure us by Your Word. Our hope is found in You. In the name of Jesus. Amen.
