TOPIC: BE THANKFUL: COUNT YOUR BLESSINGS
CLICK HERE TO READ BASIC SCRIPTURE Daily Manna 08 May 2023
Thanksgiving is the attitude of a productive life. Indeed, gratitude is the best attitude to life! If you are not thankful for what you have, you are not likely to be thankful for what you are going to get. The average human being complains virtually about everything. We forget about the millions of goodness we have been blessed with by God. The person who forgets the language of gratitude will never find himself on speaking terms with happiness. Look for things to be thankful for today! You saw a New Year – 2023! You see new days daily! Stop seeing the losses, the pain, etc, and start seeing God’s ‘little’ mercies. For every problem, there is a blessing attached to it. For every bad person, there are also good people! Learn to thank people that have been a blessing to your life, family and ministry this year. Write a ‘thank you note’ to someone today. Remember, there are three enemies of personal peace: “Regrets over yesterday’s mistakes, ingratitude for today’s blessings and anxiety over tomorrow’s problems.” The words ‘think’ and ‘thank’ come from the same Latin root. If you take time to think more, you will thank more. Remember also that there is a relationship between pride and ingratitude. Verse 12 of today’s Scripture says, “Rejoicing in hope, patient in tribulation…” Within the last few years of your life, there are things you can look back and say, “thank you Father.” Eric Hoffer said: “The hardest arithmetic to master is that which enables us to count our blessings!” Use today or this weekend to sit down and count your blessings. Have you really thought about the fact that the most valuable and important things of life, e.g. air, time, or life are free? God gave you a gift of 86,400 seconds today. Have you used one second to say “thank you?” “Gratitude is a quality similar to electricity: it must be produced and discharged and used in order to exist at all” (William Faulkner). Refuse to be depressed over any DELAY or DISAPPOINTMENT! Your best days are still ahead!
