I’ve been big on a daily gratitude practice for many decades now, and it is part of my prayer life. I do it even when I don’t feel like it (especially then) because God gives us so many things we may focus too hard on what we don’t have rather than what we do.
For instance, I don’t have a big family, but I do have a husband who loves me just as I am. (And I love him this way also.) I don’t have a lot of money, but God always provides what I need. I have always struggled with health issues, but here I am celebrating another day!
Psalm 98:4 reminds me to celebrate God’s blessings.
“Make a joyful noise unto the Lord.”
Psalm 98:4
