‭‭Psalms‬ ‭113‬:‭3‬ ‭NIV‬‬ — From the rising of the sun to the place where it sets, the name of the Lord is to be praised.

Last week Deborah shared on gratitudes. This week I am sharing the summer season. In reading today’s key verse, I want us to think about gratitudes we can find during the summer months. What is it about summer that brings you joy? I have listed a few of mine:

Gratitudes

1. Feeding birds
2. Planting flowers
3. Running and riding bikes
4. Walking on the beach
5. Gathering with family and friends

On a recent visit to the beach, my daughter shared a fun fact with me. Did you know that only 5 percent of the ocean has been discovered? This makes me think of the vastness of the ocean and how God created that. There is so much we can discover of God through our gratitudes, if we open our hearts and minds to the blessing of today.

Let’s pray. Dear God, thank You for the blessings of today. May my heart and mind be open to see and receive them. In Jesus’ Name I pray, Amen.
