.....the things you thanked God for yesterday?" THUD.....that was a very profound thought! I borrowed this from a friend on Facebook (and they borrowed if from someone else....etc.)
But seriously what if? Have you been very thankful lately? Have I? I have tried recently to be thankful and content with everything that I have.
But what if you had a difficult day with your kids yesterday (or spouse) and got frustrated and forgot to thank God for the blessing of having them in your life........and you woke up today without them? Think hard .... how would that feel?
We have so many blessings, so MUCH to be thankful for! I don't think I need to list them all for you because I am sure your list looks very much like mine.
But I am reminded that I really need to stop complaining about things and wishing I had things that I really don't need! God has promised to provide all of my needs, and I need to be content and have faith that I have everything God thinks I need. And I need to tell God thank you. The first thing to be thankful for is that we don't serve a God who takes things away if we don't say thank you for them!
1 Thessalonians 5:18 "in everything give thanks; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you."
