Thanksgiving
Psalm 103:1–5 (NLT) — (1) Let all that I am praise the LORD; with my whole heart, I will praise
his holy name. (2) Let all that I am praise the LORD; may I never forget the good things he does
for me. (3) He forgives all my sins and heals all my diseases. (4) He redeems me from death and
crowns me with love and tender mercies. (5) He fills my life with good things. My youth is
renewed like the eagle’s!
I) Let’s Be Thankful for God's Grace
Ephesians 2:8–9 (NLT) — (8) God saved you by his grace when you believed. And you can’t
take credit for this; it is a gift from God. (9) Salvation is not a reward for the good things we have
done, so none of us can boast about it.
II) Let’s Be Thankful for God's Generosity
John 11:35 (NLT) — (35) Then Jesus wept.
III) Let’s Be Thankful for God's Gift of Renewal
2 Corinthians 5:17 (NLT) — (17) This means that anyone who belongs to Christ has become a
new person. The old life is gone; a new life has begun!
Philippians 3:12 (NLT) — (12) I don’t mean to say that I have already achieved these things or
that I have already reached perfection. But I press on to possess that perfection for which Christ
Jesus first possessed me.
