God has come through for me many times. He brought me to salvation and an understanding of who Christ was. He provided for my needs. He provided me a wife and a healthy child. He has provided me with some amazing friends. He is constantly providing for my needs, physical and financial. For the most part my response has been a quiet thank you mixed with some sincere relief and unfortunately some expectation.
Yet here in Isaiah (and all through Psalms) we see a song of praise. I'm not a singer or song writer, so I can do that ... but I think that is ok. The question is: In my heart am I full of praise and thanksgiving? And am I even aware of all I have to be thankful for?
God, help me to grow in thankfulness. Not only towards you but towards others as well. Help me to understand how much you want to take care of me. Give me a heart full of praise. Give me humility so that I don't think anything is because of me. Thank you so much for taking care of me so well these 28 years, better then I've ever even asked. I would not be where I am without you!
