It is good to give thanks

By Eunice Berge

“It is good to give thanks to the Lord, to sing praises to Thy name, O Most High; to declare Thy steadfast love in the morning, and Thy faithfulness by night.” ~Psalm 92:1-2

In the wonderful, happy times with hearts overflowing, “It is good to give thanks to the Lord.”

In the normal, average days with no real emergencies or special celebrations, “It is good to give thanks to the Lord, to sing praises to Thy name, O Most High.”

In the moments, days, months, and years of heartache and heartbreak, “It is good to give thanks to the Lord, to sing praises to Thy name, O Most High; to declare Thy steadfast love in the morning, and Thy faithfulness by night.”

We can trust the Lord. He created us and He knows what’s good for us. He knows that we need a steadfast and faithful Savior, Friend, Counselor, Comforter, Deliverer, Light, Healer.

Thank you, Jesus!
