1 Chronicles 16:34 (NKJV) 34 Oh, give thanks to the Lord, for He is good! For His mercy endures forever.<\/p>\n
Give thanks.<\/p>\n
Such a simple concept, but not always so easy to do if things are tough or not going the way we had hoped or expected.<\/p>\n
Our emotions will often try to dictate to us how we should feel or how we should act, based on our circumstances. It’s a natural human tendency.<\/p>\n
But the spirit of God wants us to look beyond<\/i>\u00a0our circumstances and be thankful, despite<\/i>\u00a0our circumstances or our situation.<\/p>\n
Are you underpaid, overworked, deep in debt, about to lose your home, dealing with a family tragedy, working through relationship problems, trying to break free from addiction, or anything else that might seem overwhelming?<\/p>\n
Give thanks to God for everything. Push the emotions aside that would try to make you angry, bitter and negative.<\/p>\n
Kick the devil in the face and thank God anyway. Thank Him for\u00a0who He is, not for what He has done for you. Not for material things that can disappear in a second.<\/p>\n
Things of this earth are temporary. But God and His mercy endure forever!<\/p>\n
