“It is good to give thanks to the Lord, and to sing praises to Your name, O Most High; to declare Your lovingkindness in the morning, and Your faithfulness at night.” Psalm 92:1-2
What are your first thoughts in the morning? What are your last thoughts at night?
Recently, I read Psalm 92 and was introduced to a psalmist who had very specific first and last thoughts. In the morning, the psalmist declared the “lovingkindness” of the Lord. In the evening, he declared God’s “faithfulness”.
I have challenged myself to begin each day a simple prayer: “Thank you, Lord, for a new day of life. Thank for loving me.” We don’t know what the day holds. But we do know that God loves us and will be with us each step of the day.
As evening approaches, I am challenged to remember the ways in which God has been faithful to me that day. Lying in bed, I thank Him, one by one, for His acts of faithfulness.
God is loving. God is kind. God is faithful. We all know that. But so often we forget. Let’s begin the habit of thanking Him for His lovingkindness each morning and for His faithfulness each night.
