Thanksgiving

Why is thanksgiving such an essential part of prayer?

It eliminates self-pity.
It makes my I want list a whole lot shorter.
It turns me from self-centered prayers to intercessory prayers.
I talk with Him more than I talk about me.
Grace and mercy go right to the top of my prayer requests.
Joy fills my heart.
His will becomes what's important--not mine.


"Be anxious for nothing, but with prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be make known to God. And the peace of God, which surpasses human understanding will guard your heart and mind in Christ Jesus.
