Being Thankful

Posted in By Mike Johns 0 comments

A person who is developing a heart for God is thankful.

1 Thessalonians 5:18 tells us to be thankful in all circumstances. In everything, we are to give thanks.

This is easy to read and to consider, until life brings you hurt and pain.

It is not easy to be thankful in all circumstances:
-when we face health issues.
-when we face persecution.
-when we deal with death, hurt, or pain of a loved one.
-when our computer crashes.
-when someone runs into our car.
-when our bank account runs out.

Growing in grace means that we trust in God's process and we believe that he will use our hurt for good.

Do we trust like that?
Do you rejoice in suffering?
