14th January 2018 - GIVING THANKS

"Thank you, thank you very much" – Elvis Presley

We have just enjoyed Christmas. Most of us will have given and received presents? Were we grateful? Disappointed? Most of us had special meals. Were we thankful or did we take them for granted? How often do we say “Thank You”? What are we thankful for? How much of our lives do we take for granted? Giving thanks is hard when life is difficult. Even then there is reason to be thankful. When we experience blessing we often are thankful for a while and then forget our good fortune.

Whatever happens, keep thanking God because of Jesus Christ. This is what God wants you to do.  
1 Thessalonians 5:18
