THIS MAN WITH THROAT CANCER!!! "In everything give thanks: for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you." 1 Thessalonians 5:18 Be Thankful Always All this/that has been achieved because of the Almighty God. A story was once told of a man who had to undergo radiation treatments for throat cancer. The therapy damaged his taste buds so that he couldn’t taste food. His inability to enjoy a meal made eating a dreaded duty. The doctors told him his taste might return after the treatments were finished, but no one could say for certain. Weeks passed, then months. Every meal became a forced feeding to keep him alive. After eating flavorless food for over a year, he sat down for dinner one evening. Reluctantly, he forced the fork inside his mouth and discovered that his taste had returned. What most people would call an ordinary dinner became the best meal he had eaten in his life. Through losing his taste and then regaining it, he learned to enjoy each bite as never before. He became thankful for the ability to taste because he now had a reference point. He would never forget what it was like to eat tasteless food. You don’t have to lose something in order to be thankful. You can develop a “taste” for your blessings by simply realizing what life would be like without them. Learn to be thankful always. Edson
