Giving Thanks

Heb 15:13 "Through Jesus, therefore, let us continually offer to God a sacrifice of praise-the fruit of lips that openly profess his name."

Realized today, I really do a lot of complaining. Not that there is not plenty of small things to complain about, but I am beginning to realize just how unhealthy this is for the soul. Before, the scriptural reminder to continually praise and thank God was simply that, a reminder. I never recognized just how significant this habit could be to me, to my perspective of my life, the world, people, and my relationship with the Father.

Hopefully, I will remember to do this more from now on. Maybe every time I think or say a complaint, I will remember to think or say a praise or thanks to God. Worth a try. :)
