It is critical to recall and consider the many good things God has done for you and others.1333 Those who recount the Lord’s good works will find themselves with greater trust in God and greater willingness to submit to him.1334 Proclaiming the good God has done for you and others1335 will help more people receive these same benefits.1336
Failing to give God credit for the good things he has done for you and others is a form of turning away from God.1337 Those who refuse to credit God for what he has done will find themselves with less gratitude, less joy, less trust in God, less willingness to help others, and less willingness to obey God.
