Scripture: Psalm 69:30-32
“I will praise the name of God with a song, and will magnify Him with thanksgiving. This also shall please the Lord better than an ox or bull, which has horns and hooves. The humble shall see this and be glad; and you who seek God, your hearts shall live.”
Reaction: Still aglow from yesterday’s enriching prayer experience, and reveling in the glorious spring weather, I chose the topic of Thanksgiving for today’s reading. I focused on the words “magnify Him with thanksgiving” from the psalm. As I repeated this phrase I imagined my love for God and gratitude for all He has done for me continuing to build and grow. Words of thanksgiving and praise flooded my heart, and I knew these outpourings were very pleasing to God. Again, I felt His presence as He just stayed close, accepting my worship. As I re-read the passage, I saw it contained the word ‘seek’, which seems to keep popping up in my readings. Of the many ways I seek to Lord, I know that sometimes just offering simple prayers of adoration and thanks can bring Him closer to me.
