"Thank You Lord" by Sandra Lamb is a beautiful reminder that expressing your gratitude isn't just for those perfect days. The song starts by declaring God's greatness and invites you to constantly praise His greatness. In other words, worship isn't something that you do when you're in the right mood. Praising God is continuous, almost like a habit / a mindset. It's looking at the world, your life, and seeing God's greatness in everything.
The lyrics don't ignore the grey seasons in life… It walks us straight through them to His greatness. Instead of sinking into despair, we're encouraged to lift our hands, praise our Lord, and make a decision to praise God's name no matter what comes our way. Why? Because God's kindness shows up in our lives every single day. He opens doors and creates paths that previously seemed impossible… "You always show me kindness every day // You always made a way // Where there seems no way." Let's be honest here… His track record in our battles is undefeated! "You fight all my battles // And You never lost."
Sandra shares that God has been good to her, personally, consistently, and generously. As the Creator of heaven and earth, He is the One who leads and guides everyone who accepts Him. He is there for you!
So, ask yourself… What would change if you thanked Him before the breakthrough? Why not start now? When you feel stretched, tried beyond your limits, go ahead and follow Sandra's example of simple gratitude. May gratitude reset your perspective, one choice at a time. Go listen today; respond boldly with praise.
