Every day should be a day to enter into the presence of God. But how do we go in? My devotional this morning gave me clear insight and instruction.
It’s very clear that the first thing we should do when entering God’s presence is to be thankful, truly and from the heart. We need to spend time in awareness of who God is, not just all that He has done for us, although that is important, too.
This is the same verse from “The Message” version of the Bible. I don’t usually use that version because it is such a loose translation, but I like this verse because it is so appropriate for the 21st Century. I don’t know about you but I have what seems like hundreds of passwords for different online sites, so many in fact that I have a locked password manager on my device so that if I forget a password, I can look it up again. Or, if I’m using my usual device, the computer itself completes the password for me so that I can enter the site. Isn’t it wonderful that the password for entering into God’s presence is always the same? “Thank you.” Just “thank you.”
May you have a blessed day, filled with thanks and standing firmly in the presence of the Lord.

Everyday should be a day of entering into His presence – yes and Amen 🙏🏽. And the password – thank you Lord – love that.
Have a wonderful weekend Vicki.

The thought of “Thank you” being the password makes me chuckle, remembering Erma Bombeck, who said “Thank you” is what a child says to get his mother to let go of a cookie. 😉
