I have spent this week talking about areas of life where I have a hard time being thankful. When I struggle, I often go to Scripture – the Bible – to find real events that happened in the lives of men and women. These people had hard times, but still shouted praise to God. When others are able to do that, I find more strength to do the same. I hope this helps you.
Give thanks to the Lord! Call on His name! Make known His accomplishments among the nations.
