Taking A Moment To Just Thank God

 What are you needing God to do for you today?   Are you needing Him to make a way where there appears to be no way?   Are you needing Him to open up new doors where doors have been closed?   Are you needing Him to heal you or someone you love?   Are you needing Him to meet a need?  Are you needing Him to show you His glory?  

Understand, there is not a day that goes by that we don't need God.   We tend to say we need Him when it comes to the big things in our lives but what about the small things or at least those things we look at as small?   We still need God.   Sometimes we get so used to God doing a thing that we tend to not acknowledge or recognize that it is only because of God that we are able to do it.   Like breathing.   We have to remember that God is the breath of life.   It is only because of Him that we live, we breathe, and we have our being but because it is automatic and natural to us, we fail to thank Him for it.    So, let's take a moment to just thank God.   Let's thank Him for putting air in our lungs today.   Let's thank Him for allowing us to breathe in Him and to live out this day in and with Him.   Let's not get so caught up in what we think we need in this day.   Let's first just thank Him for allowing us to be a part of His plan for today. 

 

After you give God thanks today, choose to surrender.   Choose to tell God it's not your will but ask Him to let His will be done.   Ask Him to show up and to show out.   Ask Him to allow His glory to be reflected through your life today and every day.   Remember, you are His chosen vessel that He has placed on the earth to represent Him.   Make today about surrendering so that you can represent Him well.
