Count Your Blessings

by Charles R. Swindoll

Let us come before His presence

with thanksgiving. Let us shout joyfully

to Him with psalms.

Psalm 95:2

Sometimes when you don’t feel like praying, or you’re consumed with needing to speak to the Lord but can’t gather the words, try that old standby . . .

Count your many blessings, count them one by one.

It’s amazing how you can get carried away from worries and woes and self-concern when you start naming out loud what you’re thankful for. Right away, your focus shifts from your needs to the Father’s graciousness and love.

Try it!
