Psalm 92:1 - A THANKSGIVING DEVOTIONAL TO TEACH YOU GRATITUDE.

Psalm 92:1 (KJV) It is good to give thanks 
to the LORD.  

COMMENTARY PEARL

The Grace of Gratitude
   The Pilgrim Fathers who landed at 
Plymouth in America in 1620 knew nothing of the 
bountiful prosperity that so many people enjoy today. 
During that first long winter, seven times as many 
graves were made for the dead as homes were built 
for the living. Seed, imported from England, 
failed to grow, and a ship that was to bring food 
and relief, brought thirty-five more mouths to 
feed, but not an ounce of provisions. They caught 
fish, hunted wild fowl, and venison. They had a 
little English meal and some Indian corn. 
   Yet their lives were marked by a spirit 
of constant thankfulness. On one occasion 
William Brewster, rising from a scanty Plymouth 
dinner of clams and water, gave thanks to God 
for the abundance of the sea and the treasures 
hid in the sand." 
   According to today's standards, they had 
little; but they possessed a sense of great 
gratitude. Gratitude is one of the greatest Christian 
graces; ingratitude, one of the most vicious sins. 
Ask God to open your eyes to all the blessings 
He has bestowed on you, and to give you a fresh 
spirit of gratitude - not just at this season of 
the year, but always. 
   An ungrateful heart minimizes Gods 
blessings and focuses on what is not provided.  The 
grace of gratitude is that we no longer see what 
is lacking and instead, are in awe that weve 
been given so much. [Hope for Each Day by Billy 
Graham]
