1) Be thankful always
2) Be thankful in every season
Give thanks not FOR but IN all circumstances !
Choose to give thanks in the midst of the circumstances.
3) Be thankful for it release the power of God
Reflections :
1. In what ways would your life be different if you lived every day with a thankful heart ?
2. Share your experiences and struggles when you are able to thank God even during difficult times. What life lesson has God taught you during such difficult times ?
3. Let's take time to reflect in God's presence this Christmas and count your blessings. Make a list of all that God has blessed you with and start offer your thanksgiving to Him.
My own reflections :-
1. Stop comparing with others, be contented with what I have, count my blessings and complain less. Blog about my gratitude list.
2. At low time, stop complaining to God is a sign of maturity but able to give thanks ahead of the good promises of God is called faith in God. It is easier said than done. I have few such encounters and God has been faithful.
