Praise the Lord!
I will thank the Lord with all my heart as I meet with His godly people.
How amazing are the deeds of the Lord!
All who delight in Him should ponder them.
Everything He does reveals His glory and majesty.
His righteousness never fails.
He causes us to remember His wonderful works.
How gracious and merciful is our Lord!
Psalms 111:1-4

Let me ask you a question:  How often do you thank God for your life?

I myself thank God for the lives of those He has graciously placed in my life.  I thank God for my three best friends.  I thank the Lord for my awesome boyfriend.  I thank the Lord for my wonderful mother.  I imagine that you have people in your life that you are so thankful God placed in your life, but what about your own life?

I seldom thank God for my life.  I thank Him for my health, job, food, money, peace of mind, guidance (and the list goes on), but I don’t think to thank God for my actual life.

Thank you for making me so wonderfully complex!
Your workmanship is marvelous—how well I know it.
Psalm 139:14

Think—how often do we combine the words wonderfully and complex?  Complex typically has a negative connotation.  This verse blows that connotation out of the water, saying that we as human beings are “wonderfully complex.” We know to thank God for all good things.  Therefore, should we not stop to thank God for making us?

Thank You, Lord for taking the time out to make me.  Among all the unfathomable amount of people that You have masterfully crafted, thank You for including me.  May I honor You with this amazing opportunity to live among Your creation and point people back to their Mighty Creator.  I am so thankful to be here on this Earth as Your ambassador.  Amen.
