So on Thursday we celebrated Thanksgiving. Yeah it’s an American tradition but I guess it’s a still good reminder to be thankful for the little things.
As a Christian, giving thanks for what God’s given me is important. So I decided to turn to the Bible and see what God says about giving thanks.
- 1 Thessalonians 5 v. 18 – In everything give thanks; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you.
- Philippians 4 v. 6 – Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God.
- Psalms 100 v. 4 – Enter into His gates with thanksgiving, and into His courts with praise. Be thankful to Him, and bless His name.
God calls us to be thankful in all circumstances. This is pretty difficult. Sometimes we feel like we have very little to be thankful for. But we can always be thankful that our God in heaven loves us and he understands when we find it difficult to thank Him.
So happy Thanksgiving!! Thankful for this little blog and all the pals who read it 🙂
p.s. give the song Thanksgiving by Gas Street Music a listen. It’s a fun one.
