For Everything

Give thanks in everything, for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus. 1 Thessalonians 5:18 (HCSB)

This morning, I woke up feeling a little overwhelmed by a “thing” that is in my life. I decided, since it was Thanksgiving, I was going to sit down and write a list of everything I was thankful for. As I started to write, I quickly realized, there was no way I could get this list done in one sitting. There were too many people, too many events, too many ways God speaks. It was an amazing moment.

Then, I decided that since I wasn’t going to be able to write it down, I would say it. Today, I am going to tell everyone I see that I am thankful for them.

You try it. What are you thankful for today? Even if there is a trouble in your life, there are still things to be thankful for. Write it down. And then, share the love.

Happy Thanksgiving!
