Far too often we ask God for help, but when He gives it, we don’t offer Him any thanks in return. What would you think of a person who was always asking for resources and favors and never took the time to thank you?
It is one thing to give thanks when things are going well, but we can give thanks even when times are hard. Think of David and the beautiful psalms that he penned. One of my favorites is Psalm 63: “Because Your lovingkindness is better than life, my lips shall praise You. Thus I will bless You while I live; I will lift up my hands in Your name” (verses 3–4).
David actually wrote Psalm 63 when he was in exile in the wilderness, running from his son, Absalom, who wanted to kill him and take his throne. In the midst of his anguish and personal pain, he wrote, “Because Your lovingkindness is better than life, my lips shall praise You...”
“Lord we lift your name on high”
