Once we’ve begun giving thanks to God for who He is, it’s also right and appropriate for us to give thanks for what He’s done. I was reminded of what he’s done during my quiet time this morning, reading 1 Peter 2:22-25,

He [Jesus] committed no sin, neither was deceit found in his mouth. When he was reviled, he did not revile in return; when he suffered, he did not threaten, but continued entrusting himself to him who judges justly. He himself bore our sins in his body on the tree, that we might die to sin and live to righteousness. By his wounds you have been healed. For you were straying like sheep, but have now returned to the Shepherd and Overseer of your souls.

I thank God that he bore my sins in his body on the tree. I was straying like a sheep, but I’ve been returned to the Shepherd of my soul.

What about you? What has God done that you want to thank Him for?
