About
I AM AN 80 YEAR OLD MALE, BORN AGAIN, CHRISTIAN WITH A LOVE FOR JESUS. I DO NOT GET OUT MUCH ANYMORE BUT FIND THAT TELLING PEOPLE ABOUT THE LOVE JESUS HAS FOR THEM IS NOT ONLY WHAT WE ARE SUPPOSED TO DO BUT SOMETHING THAT THE WORLD NEEDS.

"THANKING GOD FOR HIS BLESSINGS" BY DAVID MCMILLEN
THANKING GOD FOR HIS BLESSINGS
I ASKED ONE TIME IF YOU GIVE GOD THE THANKS HE DESERVES. I NOW REALIZE WE DON'T HAVE THE CAPACITY TO DO THAT. HE DESERVES SO MUCH MORE THAN WE COULD EVER EXPRESS. HOWEVER, WE SHOULD DO THE BEST WE CAN. DID YOU KNOW THAT PRAISING HIM IS GIVING THANKS TO HIM? THAT IS WHAT IT SAYS IN HEBREWS 13:15 "By him therefore let us offer the sacrifice of praise to God continually, that is, the fruit of our lips giving thanks to his name."
DID YOU KNOW THAT IT IS GOD'S WILL FOR US TO THANK HIM FOR EVERYTHING? THIS IS WHAT IT SAYS IN 1ST THESSALONIANS 5:18 "In every thing give thanks: for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you." SOMETIMES WE FORGET TO DO THIS.
WHEN GOD SAYS NO TO ONE OF YOUR PRAYERS, DO YOU STILL THANK HIM? WE SHOULD ALL DO THIS AS MUCH AS WE DO WHEN HE SAYS YES. THE BIBLE SAYS HE KNOWS WHAT WE NEED EVEN BEFORE WE ASK HIM AND IF WE ASK HIM FOR SOMETHING THAT HE KNOWS WILL BE HARMFUL TO US, DON'T YOU WANT HIM TO SAY NO? I DO, ALTHOUGH IT IS HARD SOMETIMES. THIS IS WHERE "the renewing of your mind" COMES IN.
I WILL LEAVE YOU WITH THIS. DO YOU THANK HIM FOR THE THINGS HE IS DOING FOR YOU THAT YOU DO NOT EVEN KNOW ABOUT? WHEN THOSE BLESSINGS COME THAT YOU HAVE NOT ASKED FOR, DON'T YOU KNOW THAT IT IS JUST A LITTLE GIFT FROM HIM TO SAY THAT HE LOVES YOU? JUST THANK HIM FOR IT AND TELL HIM YOU LOVE HIM TOO.
GOD BLESS YOU ALL.
