Gladly?


Psalm 100 (NLT version)
1 Shout with joy to the Lord, O earth!

2 Worship the Lord with gladness.
Come before Him, singing with joy.

3 Acknowledge that the Lord is God!
He made us, and we are His.
We are His people, the sheep of His pasture.

4 Enter His gates with thanksgiving; go into His courts with praise.
Give thanks to Him and bless His name.

5 For the Lord is good.
His unfailing love continues forever,and His faithfulness continues to each generation.


Looked back at my ungratefulness of serving the Lord.God’s prompting for today’s quiet time was so real.Qswald Chambers said: “ The will of God is the gladdest, brightest, most bountiful thing possible to conceive, and yet some of us talk of the will of God with a terrific sigh—‘Oh well, I suppose it is the will of God,’ as if His will were the most calamitous thing that could befall us…We become spiritual whiners and talk pathetically about ‘suffering the will of the Lord.’ Where is the majestic vitality and might of the Son of God about that!”

It’s so true.I wasn’t happy about my serving and did it kind of unwillingly.And today I was supposed to go to CPC again for decoration but things changed and I didn’t go anyway. May be God wants to give me some time to serve Him gratefully.

True thankfulness is more than being grateful for what we possess. It’s an attitude that permeates our relationship with the Lord so that we may serve Him with gladness and joy.
