Verse of the Day : Psalm 100- (The Message (MSG))
A Thanksgiving Psalm
100 1-2 On your feet now—applaud God!
Bring a gift of laughter,
sing yourselves into his presence.
3 Know this: God is God, and God, God.
He made us; we didn’t make him.
We’re his people, his well-tended sheep.
4 Enter with the password: “Thank you!”
Make yourselves at home, talking praise.
Thank him. Worship him.
5 For God is sheer beauty,
all-generous in love,
loyal always and ever.
For Reflection
What could possibly be more appropriate than a joyous celebration. Feast, sing, dance to loud music. It is the season when selfless acts and frivolity take center stage. Extravagance in praise and thanksgiving and joy is encouraged. We worship God in our celebration of the birth of a new dawn — a day so profoundly significant that it punctuated our measure of time.
Pray
that you will enter each day proclaiming, “THANK YOU GOD!” Give thanks to God for surrounding us with beauty and love. Confess your allegiance to God. Pray for courage to follow through in your path along the”WAY.”
