Thanksgiving
“And give thanks for everything to God the Father in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ.”
Ephesians 5:20 NLT
Today of all days let us give thanks. We are to be thankful for all things. This would include things that we might not consider as good. But still we are to give thanks. But if we just spent our time giving thanks for the blessings in our lives, that alone would fill our time. We take so much for granted. We overlook little things and daily inconsequential things. Yet, we are not to overlook these things. We are to give thanks. If you think to yourself that giving thanks for the bad or hard things will be difficult. Then give thanks for the good. Our lives are filled with so much good. We have been blessed with all spiritual blessings. Now tell me how long would it take you to give thanks for all blessings? Thats right our problem is not so much about giving thanks for the difficulties of life. Our problem is we take for granted all the daily blessings we receive. So I challenge you today start by giving thanks for ALL your blessings and name them one by one. Let me know when you are done.
