“GOD IS CALLING YOU to a life of thankfulness. GOD wants all your moments to be punctuated with thanksgiving. The basis for your gratitude is GOD’S sovereignty. GOD is the Creator and Controller of the universe. Heaven and earth are filled with GOD’S glorious Presence. When you criticize or complain, you are acting as if you think you could run the world better than GOD does. From your limited human perspective, it may look as if The LORD is mismanaging things. But you don’t know what The LORD knows or see what HE sees. If GOD pulled back the curtain to allow you to view heavenly realms, you would understand much more. However, GOD has designed you to live by faith, not by sight. GOD lovingly shields you from knowing the future or seeing into the spirit world. Acknowledge GOD’S sovereignty by giving thanks in all circumstances.” para-phrased – “Jesus Calling” by Sarah Young
And they were calling to one another: “Holy, holy, holy is the LORD Almighty; the whole earth is full of his glory.” ISAIAH 6 : 3
We live by faith, not by sight. 2 CORINTHIANS 5 : 7
Give thanks in all circumstances, for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus. 1 THESSALONIANS 5 : 18
Prayer: God no matter the circumstance, help me to give thanks for my blessings. To focus on the things that are lovely and pure and true and honorable and praise worthy. To think on these things. And wait expectantly for you to fight my battles for me. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
