Psalm 118 overflows with thanksgiving and gratitude.

Oh give thanks to the Lord, for he is good; for his steadfast love endures forever! 2 Let Israel say, “His steadfast love endures forever.” 3 Let the house of Aaron say, “His steadfast love endures forever.” 4 Let those who fear the Lord say, “His steadfast love endures forever.”

- Psalm 118:1-4

There are days on which we don’t feel thankful.

Out of my distress I called on the Lord...

- Psalm 118:5

10 All nations surrounded me… 11 They surrounded me, surrounded me on every side… 12 They surrounded me like bees; they went out like a fire among thorns… 13 I was pushed hard, so that I was falling...

- Psalm 118:10-13

There’s a reason to be thankful every day.

22 The stone that the builders rejected has become the cornerstone. 23 This is the Lord's doing; it is marvelous in our eyes. 24 This is the day that the Lord has made; let us rejoice and be glad in it.

- Psalm 118:22-24

Remember that Jesus is our Rock.

14 The Lord is my strength and my song; he has become my salvation. 15 Glad songs of salvation are in the tents of the righteous…

- Psalm 118:14-15

Gratitude changes our attitude.

Out of my distress I called on the Lord; the Lord answered me and set me free.
