Sunday’s Food for Thought : Being Grateful about Life
Are we grateful about life?
Whether we like it or not, the reality is, it’ll be hard for anyone to be thankful or grateful about anything if we don’t know / acknowledge that there is a Source from which we receive what we currently have.
For example: we will be thankful for the ‘free’ oxygen we breath in every day, when we realise that God is the Source who gives us this thing called ‘oxygen’ that we need every day, without us ‘asking’ or ‘paying’ for it.
[Someone who needs to pay for oxygen tanks in order to live and breathe every day will undeniably appreciate the ‘cost-free’ oxygen we all enjoy daily]
…
God is the Creator, and God is also the REDEEMER.
When we believe that we have been REDEEMED, we’ll surely live a life that’s full of thankfulness.
We will be able to see how God works in our life.
…
For from Him and through Him and to Him are all things.
To Him be the glory forever! Amen.
– Romans 11:36
