Thank ya!
1 Thessalonians 5:16-18
16 Rejoice always, 17 pray continually, 18 give thanks in
all circumstances; for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus.
A universal theme during this season of turkey and dressing
is the aspect of being thankful. Many people will sit around their dinner
tables salivating over their meal while waiting for each individual before them
to profess the items they are thankful for.
In these three impacting verses of 1 Thessalonians, we learn
a powerful lesson.
Our lives require constant communication. We cannot relegate
our conversations with Christ to only good or bad days.
As full out followers of Jesus we must communicate
consistently!
When we grasp the concept of talking to Him in the midst of
EVERY situation we gain better insight and focus. People often stay lost when
they aren’t listening to the leader!
I was told a story about a young boy who was born with a
severe immune deficiency that forced him to grow up in a bubble isolated from
the world. The only thing that could save him from that bubble was a risky bone
marrow transplant. Before he received the transplant they asked him what he was
looking forward to the most. His reply was simple. “I want to walk barefoot on
grass and touch my mother’s hand.”
God will help you lie down in green pastures and hold your
hand through the storms.
I challenge you to enjoy life, communicate constantly, and
be thankful for EVERYTHING!
Life – you may not always like it but you can always learn
from it!
