April 26 – Psalm 50:14-15
Psalm 50:14-15 NIV
Sacrifice thank offerings to God, fulfill your vows
to the Most High, and call upon Me in the day of
trouble; I will deliver you, and you will honor Me.
Oh, Annie, I wish you could hear the emphasis
here on “thank offerings.” He has just said He
doesn’t need anything from us, but He wants our
thanks. He wants us to depend on Him, call on
Him, and His delivering us will bring Him honor.
The practicing of a thankful heart might be one
of the most important character-building things
we do.

I know! I am learning to be thankful too, and it is changing me, I hope. I think He just loves what happens in our hearts when we Trust Him to take care of us, and then He does, and then we say thank you. I mean, as a mom, isn’t one of your favorite things blessing us kiddos. And then, to hear “You’re the best, Mom.” God must feel like that, too.
Oh, FYI, You’re the best, Mom!
