If you're like me, you have heard that phrase millions of times.......you've probably said it at least half that many. You know the blessing:
God is great. God is good. Let us thank Him for our food.
Have you really given much thought to it or just said it?? I must admit....I'm guilty of both, but recently, that particular prayer really made me think. (I think I was in the shower at the time. God does alot of His talking to me in the shower-----that too leaves me to think deeply, why the shower??) Most little children are taught it. They NEVER forget it. Such a simple prayer........or is it??

GOD IS GREAT!!!
This really doesn't need any more explanation. As you read that how many breaths did God allow you to take? You are able to see, think, smell, feel, & love. Where do you think that came from? The sun, the rain, all the stars (more than the eye can see), the wind, trees, flowers, dirt, food.......ever given much thought to it all? God IS great!!!
"Creator of heaven and earth." Genesis 14:19
"Before I formed you in the womb I knew you, before you were born I set you apart; I appointed you as prophet to the nations." Jeremiah 1:4
GOD IS GOOD!!!
He is sooooo good. He has forgiven me. My sins, oh my many, horrible, terrible sins have been forgiven. ME!!!
"This righteousness from God comes through faith in Jesus Christ to all who believe. There is no difference, for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, and are justified freely by His grace through the redemption that came by Christ Jesus. God presented him as a sacrifice of atonement, through faith in his blood." Romans 3:22-25 (this is for everyone who believes)
He knows ME!! He knows my thoughts, my motives, my heart, my feelings, my fears, my worries. He knows what I'm going to do before I've even thought it. He's NEVER surprised! He hears my prayers without a word being spoken. God IS good! He IS alive in me!!
I pray He is also alive in you. I pray that you REALLY feel Him. Remember, He knows YOU!! He loves YOU!!
God is great! God is good! Thank you LORD for everything!!!!
