Bible verses about thankfulness

"In every thing give thanks": scripture treats thankfulness as a way of life rather than a reaction to good days. These verses — many from the Psalms — are words of gratitude to say back to God.

    1 Thessalonians 5:18

    In every thing give thanks: for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you.

  2. Enter into his gates with thanksgiving

    Psalm 100

    Make a joyful noise unto the Lord, all ye lands. Serve the Lord with gladness: come before his presence with singing. Know ye that the Lord he is God: it is he that hath made us, and not we ourselves; we are his people, and the sheep of his pasture. Enter into his gates with thanksgiving, and into his courts with praise: be thankful unto him, and bless his name. For the Lord is good; his mercy is everlasting; and his truth endureth to all generations.
