“I will sing unto the LORD, because He hath dealt bountifully with me” (Psalm 13:6).

One of my favorite holidays is a few days away. I love Thanksgiving. Of course this is not to be celebrated just once a year. However, it is a great time for believers to take inventory of the many things that the Lord does for us and Who He is to us. Trisha grew up in a home where abuse and abandonment were the rule of life. Fending for herself and her little sister, Tammy, these two little girls went without the basic necessities of life until the kind school nurse spotted their situation. Now three years later the girls have settled into their new home, where love and ample provision bless their lives. One night as Dad and Mom were kissing their newly adopted daughters good night, little Tammy said, “Thank you for adopting us. We didn’t have nothing when we were little. Now we have everything. I like it better with everything!” Mom and Dad held it in until they closed the bedroom door. Bursting into silent laughter, they looked at each other and whispered, “Didn’t have nothing…I like everything!” What a picture of the Lord and us, they concluded.

For today: What song have you been singing to the Lord today?
