Appreciating God for who He is and what He has done is a critical characteristic of the child of God. Even the term "child of God" carries the weight of being needy and humble.
Humility born of gratitude:
Squarely gives God the glory due Him and moves our souls to rest in our trust in the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. It is suitable for our soul to be thankful as we throw ourselves onto the mercies of Holy God.
He is Holy, compassionate, and acts in mercies.
"Care and grief do us good and no hurt when they set us a-praying, and engage us, not only to speak to God, but to cry to Him, as those that are in earnest."
Matthew Henry
"But Thou, O LORD, art a shield about me, My glory, and the One who lifts my head. 4 I was crying to the LORD with my voice, And He answered me from His holy mountain. Selah. 5 I lay down and slept; I awoke, for the LORD sustains me. 6 I will not be afraid of ten thousands of people Who have set themselves against me round about."
Psalm 3:3-6
Stop with me for a few minutes and consider how sweet it is to cry out earnestly to God and rest like a child in His faithfulness.
Sometimes, I would have kept beloved friends and my babies escape from care, grief, and troubles. God is merciful, though, to show me the abundant satisfaction that comes when forced to draw near Him amid distress. I would be a most terrible friend, especially Dad if I shielded my beloved from those care, grief, and troubles designed by God to humble and force them to draw close to Him.
Learning God is our shield through what He takes us through is the most potent satisfaction to our souls.
"What a man is on his knees before God, that he is and nothing more."
