The word for today is: Being thankful when you dont think there is nothing to be thankful for! For starters are you breathing! Do you have your health and strength? Are your kids healthy and so on? Should we only be thankful when everything is going great in our life? 1 Thessalonians 5:16-18 NIV Rejoice always, pray continually, give thanks in all circumstances; for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus. No matter what we are going through it always could be worst! Read the story of Jobs life in the bible! One thing that stood out to me was! Job 2:7-10 NIV So Satan went out from the presence of the Lord and afflicted Job with painful sores from the soles of his feet to the crown of his head. Then Job took a piece of broken pottery and scraped himself with it as he sat among the ashes. His wife said to him, “Are you still maintaining your integrity? Curse God and die!” He replied, “You are talking like a foolish woman. Shall we accept good from God, and not trouble?” In all this, Job did not sin in what he said. Listen I have made a decision in my life to be thankful for the good and trouble that God has allowed in my life! James 1:2-4 NIV Consider it pure joy, my brothers and sisters, whenever you face trials of many kinds, because you know that the testing of your faith produces perseverance. Let perseverance finish its work so that you may be mature and complete, not lacking anything. If God allows things in your life, remember its for your benefit and his glory! Romans 8:28 NIV And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose. Have a great day! Thank You for the Word, Brother Marshall.
