BOVE all of these things, I am thankful for the spiritual
blessings which I have received from the gracious hand of God (Ephesians 1:3-12). Once upon a time, God was angry with me. But, thanks be to God, His anger has been
turned away (Isaiah 12:1 & 1st John 4:10). I am forgiven. He has saved me; rescued me from the plight
of destruction which I was on. He has
comforted me with incomparable joy. What
a deed He has done! I praise Him! I thank Him!
I love Him! I desire to exalt His
name to whatever degree I can.
As Isaiah exhorted Israel to do in the day of their
salvation, I should sing, shout and declare with much gusto that my God is
great! I should tell everyone around me
about His goodness. And, I should tell
Him as well (Isaiah 12:4). The Almighty
dwells with us, so indeed, if we had nothing else to be thankful for, this one
thing would be more than enough (or, shall I say, should be more than enough)
to keep us smiling in sincere appreciation (Hebrews 13:5).
