"In everything give thanks; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you. (1 Thessalonians 5:18, NKJV)

"Thank you." Powerful, yet simple words, too often left unspoken. This simple expression of polite gratitude is taken for granted (if not totally ignored) by many. Christians, however, must always be thankful, remembering to express their appreciation "in everything." This is the will of God for you. Therefore, ingratitude is a sin against God. In Him "we all live and move and have our being" (Acts 17:28). He is the one who has blessed us "with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places in Christ" (Eph. 1:3). Whether material or spiritual, "every good gift and every perfect gift" is from God (James 1:17). Thanksgiving is due His name (1 Chron. 29:10-15). Use today to be thankful to God and to say "thank you" to those who touch your life.
