10 REASONS TO BE THANKFUL
1. Another Day!
Can you add a single day, hour, minute, or second to your life? Or, are your days numbered by God? If you open your eyes or awake to another day, it is something to be thankful for!
2. Because God says so.
3. When we rejoice in the Lord, it brings joy.
4. We have continuous (24/7) access to communicate with God through prayer.
Godās Word tells us to give thanks or be thankful no matter what. Plus, we are instructed to rejoice. The term rejoice derives from the Old French term rejoir, meaning āto cause joy (joir ā joy). God says that we are to pray continuously because prayer is a petition and how we communicate with God. Arenāt you thankful that God doesnāt have āoffice hoursā? I know that I am!
5. His Love, mercy, and faithfulness are fresh and endless!
No matter how crazy, how ratchet, how faithless, and how godless we get, God still Loves us, is still faithful to us, and He still extends His mercy to us, giving us chance after chance. On our best day, our righteousness are as menstrual rags (Isaiah 64:6).
6. Perseverance produces abundance.
It is great that our struggles can be used for our advancement and the advancement of others so that God gets the glory. We just need to keep the faith!
7. We are overcomers by default!
God has already overcome the world through Christ Jesus. All we have to do is accept HIS INVITATION and we automatically win the war, receiving the gift of eternal life in the Kingdom of Heaven.
8. We can take a load off.
Enough said.
9. Peace.
We can go to God with our problems, leave it with Him, and take on unexplainable peaceā¦Thatās good news.
10. Life. Abundant Life.
Are you thankful that you have accepted GODāS INVITATION for eternal life? I know that I am!
