Thankfulness to God – Lectio Divina

By

Therefore, my heart sings to you without ceasing; O Lord my God, I will give you thanks forever.” Psalm 30:12



I will give you thanks forever.

Lord, the more I offer you my thanks and praise, the more I see the depth of Your blessings.
Lord, the more I pay attention to Your gifts, the more words of thankfulness burst from my heart.
Lord, the more I dig though the mud and muck of life, I find Your treasures and nuggets of love surrounding me.
Lord, the more I try to express my gratitude to You with inadequate expressions, the more I fall before you with wordless tears.
Lord, I will give you thanks forever.

    And this is the area I so want to express myself, but it is also the area I find few words that truly express my feelings. Good post. Clella

    Beautiful as usual. I love this line – “Lord, the more I try to express my gratitude to You with inadequate expressions, the more I fall before you with wordless tears.”
    Amen to that! Sometimes I feel SO grateful and I just do not know how to express it. God bless!
