Read Psalm 100: A most memorized Psalm. It tells us to be joyful, glad, singing, praising, and giving thanks. Because: We are His. His love endures forever, He is always faithful. We cannot put into words all He is, and His love for us. Paul was a master of words, but once he said "Thanks be to God for His "unspeakable" gift. The Gift of Jesus Christ. No words are really adequate to describe Him---He is The Unspeakable Gift, and with Him come so many other gifts. What would my life have been without Christ? I would have been incredibly unhappy, bitter, self-occupied. I believe every good thing in my life has come from knowing Him--my happy home, our loving children, our friends, the joy of service, fun.--all gifts from the Unspeakable Gift --Christ. His Blessings are not only personal. They are the hope of the World. But many do not understand nor accept. One of the worst moments for an atheist is when he feels thankful and no one to thank. We are not in that position--we know that every good and every perfect gift comes from our Father.. So let us be thankful and Praise His Wonderful Name.
