Have you ever held the door for someone, or done some other kind gesture, only to have that person not express any gratitude for what you did? Sometimes I get so irritated that I say under my breath, but hoping they will hear it, “You’re welcome!”
One time when I did that, the Lord spoke to my heart and said, “How many times have I done things for you and you didn’t thank me?”
Ouch!
“You’re welcome!” the Lord said.
“Oh...uh...thank You, Lord!!! And thank You for reminding me!”
“You’re welcome!” He said...again!
“Oh give thanks to the Lord, for he is good,
for his steadfast love endures forever!” - Psalm 107:1 (ESV)
“Give thanks to the Lord, for he is good,
for his steadfast love endures forever.” - Psalm 136:1 (ESV)
