"Blessed be the Lord who daily loads us with benefits, the God of our salvation! Selah" Psalm 68:18
Salvation is bountiful and the One who saves us merits a generous overflow of heart-felt praise. This text is a reminder to give back blessing to God who loads us with daily benefits.
A gratitude attitude can change your day. Just be willing to put your thanks into words. When you feel you cannot face the world, look up and count your blessings. Count them one by one aloud.
Name the people who bless you each day. Daily blessings do not just happen, they are poured out through others. Pronounce blessings upon them. Allow your heart to overflow with love for each one.
COUNT YOUR BLESSINGS! Name them one by one, and it will surprise you what the Lord has done." I recall my mother singing that hymn as she worked long hours to support a sick husband and me, her daughter. She had discovered how to lift the over-load of worry and how to carry an over-flow of joy.
PRAYER: Dear Lord, teach me to switch from negative thoughts to a positive recall of daily blessings in my life. Instead of an overload of worry, I lift up praise to You. I claim all the benefits of my salvation. In Jesus name, Amen.
