Title: Do You Ever Give Thanks for the Things You Have?
Post by: mrisha on December 05, 2017, 07:51:05 pm
I give thanks to the Lord everyday I wake up.  I don't just get things by luck it is by the Lords decision.  I have been through some awful things and I have been blessed.  The Lord is my shepherd....

There are many times that I sit and reflect in contentment about my things. The physical and non physical. i love my family, my cats, where I live, the hand me downs from my family, etc. It's such a wonderful feeling to look around your home and know that it's all yours. That it's comfortable, safe, and a good place.

I agree with you 100%. I thank God every morning when I wake up because I've actually woken up. He's the one who keeps my blood pumping and my lungs breathing. Thank you for this wonderful post giving God the glory for every day! :)

Yes I do. I could not get through my day without my Father in Heaven. I pray everyday and most days I watch my Father's word on the television. Those who seek his word and how to understand the words or verses of the Bible should watch The Sheperd's Chapel. On dish network, he is on channel 256 twenty four hours a day. I'm sorry, but I don't have direct tv and I do not what station it is on, but I know that Sheperd's Chapel does not run twenty four hours a day with direct tv. To those seeking to understand our Father's word should watch this program. The Pastor's names are Arnold Murray and Dennis Murray. They are father and son. They teach the Bible chapter by chapter and verse by verse and they explain the verses as they teach. I know and understand the hOLY Bible more than any other teaching out there in my 47 years on this earth.They never ask for money. They just love The Lord and want his word to reach each and everyone here on earth. You should watch an episode. I just know you will learn more in one lesson than you ever have. The show keeps me coming back for more and I know it will keep you coming back for more. May The Lord Bless everyone on this earth, I pray. :angel11:

Every day!  You never know when you won't have what we take for granted - like our family!
I wish there was a Christian emoji - I would put it here.

Oh give Thanks unto the Lord for he is good, his mercy endures through all generations, I give Thanks to God every day, for waking me up and starting me on my daily journey, I thank him each time i lift my head off the pillow, before I put my feet on the floor, for allowing me walk to and fro, for allowing me to drink his water and eat his food, for keeping us safe while we're away from home and for seeing us safely back home. Yes I Thank Him for the things I have and don't have.

I give thanks all the time for what I have. It also serves as a good reminder that I have things to be grateful for when a rough patch comes along. It's important to give thanks for the blessings we have.

Post by: debidoo on December 07, 2017, 12:57:25 pm
I don't probably as much as I should as I know that if it were not for the Lord and his blessings all could be lost.  I am sad by losing my husband and some other things that have happened to me but I know he has a plan for all of us and I certainly need to be thankful for his blessings.   :rainbow:

I give thanks to God every night before I go to sleep and at times during the day too.  I have really seen the beauty of his creation more in the last 2 years since we moved to the house we're in now.  We see deer, ducks, beautiful birds, occasional rabbits, possum, etc.

I don't nor could I ever thank the Lord enough for all he does for me especially the waking up to another day with my family part.  I am trying to do better because he deserves more praise than I could ever give him.

It's easy to forget about all the things we take for granted. Good health,food, family money for rent etc. The older I get the more I realize how good health is important. Look at tv we have now compare to when we were kids cable,netflix hulu others and yet I have trouble finding something to watch.
