God is Good

I received a card today with the following scripture from Psalm 126:

"The LORD has done great things for us,
and we are filled with joy." Psalm 126:3

I could not help but smile at the simplicity of this beautiful verse, because it is so true. Our Lord has done simply incredible things for us! When I reflect on all God has done, even just in the past week, much less the past year or more, I wonder how it is possible that I am ever not filled with joy? I somehow let life get in the way and focus on the negative and the stress and the hurt, instead of focusing on the magnificent power of God and all that He has done, is doing and will continue to do.

I pray that God is ever reminding me of each and every great thing He has done for me and my family so that I am not only filled with joy, but more importantly, can be thankful.
