“Let them give thanks to the Lord for His lovingkindness, and for His wonders to the sons of men! Let them extol Him also in the congregation of the people, and praise Him at the seat of the elders.” (Psalm 107:31-32)

What is your purpose? Why did the Lord create You? What are the instructions. We were created to praise and thank the Lord. No matter the circumstance, we are to give thanks to the Lord for His goodness. Come then into the presence of the Lord and give Him thanks for all of His goodness. He alone is good and worthy of all praise. Look and you will see the wonder of His creation, in all that He has made.

Lord, I understand in my mind, by my heart is far from You, and becomes conditional depending upon circumstances. Lead me away from such reactions that I may learn to live as You have created me to live. Guide me in the goodness of Your mercy that I may praise You at all times and for all circumstances. Lead me into the eternal way of living that I may praise You for all Your wonders.

Lord Jesus, I need Your help in order to live the life to which You call me. You have provided the means, so help me to live into that to which You have called me. Guide me by Your grace to be willing to walk humbly with You, my Savior, that I may be guided into the life to which I have been called. May the Holy Spirit speak clearly this day to ears that are listening. Amen.
