Some of you may be struggling right now and having difficult recognizing the many blessings Father has given you. But I want you to ask yourself: “Has God brought any good things into my life?”
Beloved one, first and foremost—aren’t you going to heaven? Has He ever given you anything that has brought you delight or happiness? Did you ever enjoy spending time with family and friends? Has anybody ever shown you love? Did someone ever show you kindness? Maybe you liked the outdoors and playing with your classmates when you were younger? Do you enjoy looking at God’s amazing creation? Do you still relish the food that you eat? Are you able to hear or see? Do you have relationships that bring you satisfaction and fulfillment?
Every one of these that adds to our joy, every simple pleasure that we have ever experienced or are even capable of feeling—is a gift from God.
“Every good thing given and every perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of lights, with whom there is no variation or shifting shadow” (James 1:17, NASB).
God is truly good, and He is evermore worthy to be praised! He wants us to walk with an attitude of thanksgiving.

Yeshua told a story about 10 lepers (Luke 17:11-19). He healed 10, but there was only one who returned and gave thanks. Jesus said, “Were there not ten cleansed? But the nine—where are they?” (Luke 17:17).
