Perpetual Thanksgiving & Gratitude
It is a practice of many
countries to set aside one day a year for Thanksgiving or a time of thanks. The concept is readily grasped and carried
out happily. However, for those who believe in Jesus, we are to maintain a
heart of gratitude all year long.
The Bible tells us that
we are to be compassionate, forgiving others as Christ has forgiven us. The peace of God is to be the guide of all
that we think, say or do and enables us to walk in His Spirit even during difficult
times.
When we let God’s Word
be the pattern for our lives it makes it easier to get along with others. Being able to live at peace among men and
with our Heavenly Father is a reason to continually give thanks each and every
day.
“And let the peace that comes from Christ rule in
your hearts.
For as
members of one body you are called to live in peace.
And always be thankful.
“Let the message about Christ, in all its
richness, fill your lives.
Teach and counsel each other with all the wisdom
he gives.
Sing psalms and hymns and spiritual songs to God
with thankful hearts.” (Colossians
3:15-16 NLT)
No matter what is happening in our
lives it is good to give thanks, knowing we can count on Jesus to see us
through each circumstance. That should keep
a perpetual song of praise flowing out of our mouths. (cw)
