Truly Grateful
November 22, 2014//
Topics to Dig Into
Jeremiah 31:13-15 (NLT) The young women will dance for joy,
and the men – old and young – will join in the celebration. I will turn their mourning into joy. I will comfort them and exchange their sorrow
for rejoicing. The priests will enjoy
abundance, and my people will feast on my good gifts. I, the Lord, have spoken!

Let’s dig deeper…
There’s a run on gratitude these
days. I didn’t participate in a 40 day Facebook
challenge, but reading them got me thinking.
I’m thankful for the day to day necessities and conveniences, family, health,
community, and financial stability. I’m
thankful to have been born in this country and for the amazing beauty of
nature. I am richly blessed and I thank
God.

It’s a standard list. I can tell it’s become trite because I tick
it off mentally. None of it causes my
heart to pour out praise to God. What am
I truly thankful for? What brings a tear to my eye and causes my
heart to swell with deep gratitude?

Let’s dig deeper this
Thanksgiving. My eyes well up with tears
remembering the hugs I desperately needed and received. Perhaps you have this visceral response for
your health or family because you’ve had a scare or you have a new baby. What are you truly thankful for?
