"For everything GOD created is good, and nothing is to be rejected if it is received with THANKSGIVING"
-1 Timothy 4:4
What does it mean to be thankful?
Are you only thankful when everything seems to go right?
How about if something is going wrong? Would you still be thankful?
--
We can say that it is easy to be thankful when everything is going right, when everything seems so easy and there seem to be no problem.
But when it comes to difficult times and hard situations, we find our hearts struggling for finding the reasons to be thankful, and ended up with being ungrateful.
You see, life offers hundred of reasons to be ungrateful.
But, GOD will always provide millions of reasons for us to be thankful each passing day.
If you can read this, be thankful.
If you are breathing now, be thankful.
If you know that all is well, be thankful.
If you are facing problems now, still, be thankful.
If you think life is pushing you too hard, still, be thankful.
If you know that there are things which one are not going right, still, be thankful.
Always and always, be thankful.
In every blessing, in every struggle, GOD is watching us. He's always behind the scenes. Celebrating with us in good times, and lifting us up during those difficult times.
Yes, it is hard to remain thankful especially during difficult moments in our lives but we should be reminded that every situation, good or bad, has a purpose.
A purpose that helps us learn.
A purpose that helps us grow.
A purpose that brings out the best in us.
So whatever situation you are facing now, BE THANKFUL because GOD is using that situation to create a better you.
BE THANKFUL. For all the things. From what you think the smallest to what you consider the greatest, all these are blessings from above.
Wonderful things happen when you are thankful.
So, always and always, Please be THANKFUL.
1 Chronicles 16:34 "Give thanks to the LORD, for he is good; his love endures forever." ♡
May you never forget to give thanks to the Lord for his love and goodness.
