“When you arise in the morning,
give thanks for the morning light,
for your life and strength.
Give thanks for your food,
and the joy of living.
If you see no reason for giving thanks,
the fault lies with yourself.”
- Tecumseh Shawnee Chief

“Be happy [in your faith] and rejoice
and be glad-hearted continually (always);
Be unceasing in prayer [praying perseveringly];
Thank [God] in everything
[no matter what the circumstances may be,
be thankful and give thanks],
for this is the will of God for you
[who are] in Christ Jesus
[the Revealer and Mediator of that will].”
- 1 Thessalonians 5:16-18 AMP
