How to Thank God
“As I learn your righteous regulations, I will thank you by living as I should!” Psalm 119:7
Exodus 19:5 tells us, “Now if you will obey me and keep my covenant, you will be my own special treasure from among all the peoples on earth; for all the earth belongs to me.”
There are many different ways to thank people.
Some people are touched by a handwritten note. Other people are moved when you send them flowers or a gift to demonstrate gratitude. Still others appreciate a phone call or other verbal gestures of gratitude.
When we are really grateful, we go out of our way to find out what really tickles another person’s fancy in terms of thanks.
One of the things that tickles God’s fancy in terms of demonstrating gratitude is our obedience. All of the other acts mean little to Him unless we are willing to live as He has taught us. As a parent, I feel the same way toward my own children.
Let’s join with King David and thank the Lord by living as we should.
Goodnight, Runners.
