Well as a read through the scriptures I have found listed below and I notice a trend. We should be thankful for a lot of things that do not make my daily list, like his deeds, his goodness, his mercy, his name, his holiness and salvation. And another thing I noticed was the way in which we are to be thankful. Not grudgingly, but with joy and jubilation, with songs and praise, with shouts and music. Truly thankfulness as described here is to be more than just on the lips but also within the heart and intrinsically wrapped up with joy and celebration. I am just thankful to have discovered how to be more thankful.
