Thankfulness

The following quote is found in the introduction to Deuteronomy in the
Prayer Devotional Bible: - The spiritual disciplines of Scripture
meditation and prayer are like covenant renewals. Daily we need to
remember God's mercy and goodness, give thanks and pray for his
purposes to be accomplished in us, and confess our failures to let him
do so. Gratitude for God's mercy is the foundation of all spiritual
renewal and right living. . . 

Prayer is the first act of that thankfulness.

Thanks for the post! Imagine how many people in the world that do not take the time to "stop" and say, "Thank You, Lord!"!! I admit that I've got caught up in a whirlwind of hectic-ness forgetting to pause and praise the Lord! Humans are driven to do what humans do. But Christians are driven to do what Christ did! :)

Keep on blogging!
