| "In every thing give thanks: for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you." 1Thessalonians 5:18 To say "thank you" is not very difficult. It was more than likely one of the first words you were taught when you were little. Sometimes though, gratitude involves action. It calls for doing something besides mere talk.How do you say "thank you" to the Lord who made you, redeemed you, and gives you abundant blessings now, followed by eternal life? We appreciate all of God's bountiful blessings and should give thanks regularly. Ultimately, our thanksgiving shows itself in the way we live. We give thanks with our gifts of love to the Lord and to others. We bring to God our hearts and demonstrate our love as we faithfully worship Him, follow Him and His leading in His Word, and care for others in true compassion, even as God in Christ cared for us. Don't let your "thank you" just be words! Let it be from your heart as you give God the credit for all you are and have. Let your heartfelf "thank you" show forth in manifold ways as you live for Christ Jesus. God Bless You. <J><E><S><U><S>< <S><A><V><E><S>< |
