The Apostle Paul wrote, In every thing give thanks: for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus. Psalm 9:1 Let them give thanks to the Lord. And much like counting our blessings can uplift us, reading or reciting Bible verses about thankfulness to God has a way of filling us with hope. There are examples throughout the Old and New Testaments. King David Gave Thanks to God I will thank the Lord with all my heart I will declare all Your wondrous works. The faithful are called to give thanks to God for everything-and not only to be thankful but to rejoice: "Let us come into his presence with thanksgiving let us make a joyful noise to him with songs of praise!" (Psalm 95:2). Thankfulness is a concept that appears often in the Bible too. Give thanks in all circumstances for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you. It’s simply the change in perspective from dwelling on what we lack to focusing on what we have. Once we begin counting our blessings, we often discover that we have a gracious plenty after all. Most verses go on to list reasons why we should thank Him, such as His love endures forever (Psalm 136:3), He is good (Psalm 118:29), and His mercy is everlasting (Psalm 100:5). But here’s the funny thing about thankfulness. The Bible is filled with commands to give thanks to God (Psalm 106:1 107:1 118:1 1 Chronicles 16:34 1 Thessalonians 5:18). Sometimes it can be tough to be thankful for the little things, especially in hard times.
