“It is in quiet moments of reflection that I am able to speak to your heart and mind. As you pray with thanksgiving, you honor me. Words of sincerity and praise welcome my presence.
Thankfulness is the precursor to experiencing peace like a mighty river flowing through you. It prepares the deep waters of your heart for true fellowship to course between us. Praise flows from your mouth as you lift acknowledgments of truth in prayer.
In your toughest times, thankfulness is the bed you should rest upon. With the awakening of prayer, you will see more clearly and the blessing of peace will have arrived. You will know without a doubt that I am God, I am always good, and I am good to you.”
