Why do we have to wait until November to start thinking and sharing about being thankful?
Ooh… we actually don’t. So let’s do it!!!
“In everything give thanks; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you.” – 1 Thessalonians 5:18
I tend to get caught up in trying to discern God’s will in the “big” things in my life… rather than obeying His clearly stated will in this small thing – giving thanks.
I’d like to share with you 10 things for which I’m thanking the Lord today. Some of them are huge things, and some of them are just those little blessings that He crams into my life, just because He wants to make me smile.
- HIM!!! Truly the greatest blessing ever.
- My incredible family
- The gift of hearing
- Words
- Coffee 🙂
- A wonderful church family
- A job for which I don’t have to wear a mask 🙂
- Clean water
- The purpose He infuses in my life
- The opportunity to throw my words all over the world
Whoa… I serve an incredible God. He doesn’t have to give me any of these things – I certainly don’t deserve them – and yet He pours them out freely. He is truly worthy of all the praise I can give!
It’s your turn now! What are 10 things for which you can thank God today?
