BE THANKFUL FOR ALL EVENTS AND ALL THINGS

It is easy to praise and thank the Lord in the good times. What about thanking Him in the bad times too?

All of us have faced stressful times in our life: loss of a loved one; loss of finances; loss of a job; loss of health; etc. We may think of the loss of these "things" very negatively.

Truly God has all of our lives mapped out from the very beginning. Each circumstance we go through is meant for our spiritual growth. Each one of our trials is meant to mold us into the person God wants us to be.

We should choose this attitude when thinking about ourselves or our brothers and sisters in the Lord: "Be patient with me; God isn't finished with me yet".

Ephesians 5:20 - Always give thanks to God the Father for everything, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ.

Prayer:   Dear Father thank You for all things. Amen
