“Though the fig tree does not bud and there are no grapes on the vines, though the olive crop fails and the fields produce no food, though there are no sheep in the pen and no cattle in the stalls, yet I will rejoice in the LORD, I will be joyful in God my Savior. The Sovereign LORD is my strength; he makes my feet like the feet of a deer; he enables me to tread on the heights. Habakkuk 3:17-19

Dear Heavenly Father, So often I show thanks only after have granted success in earthly matters. But here Habakkuk says thanks even though his crops fail, and the livestock are gone and he isn’t sure if he will have enough to eat. He thanks you because he believes your word that promises your direction and protection even when he cannot see it with his eyes. I thank you now like he does. I thank you that you are my rescuer and provider even though I don’t know how you are going to do it. I just trust you will see me through everything in my life and then give me a place in glory with you as the grand prize at the end. I will trust you through plenty and puny. Amen.

God is worthy of our thanks just because he is our God. How he blesses is just details.
