Thanksgiving: In All Circumstances

#Thanksgiving Day 29

“He who sacrifices thank offerings honors me, and he prepares the way so that I may show him the salvation of God.” Psalm 50:23

Has year 2018 been good to you? Are you grateful for this year?  

Truth is we all may not be where we want to be but we are not where we used to be. For that, we should be thankful and grateful to God. 

We complain so much the we lose sight of the good things God has done for us. The devil will always give you one thousand and one reason why God is bad but you should know there are millions of reasons for us to know that God is good.

This year has been eventful, challenging, rewarding. For it all, glory be to God. Our thanksgiving must not always be a measure of how easy and fantastic or journey in life have been.

Despite the seeming unanswered prayers, be grateful

Despites the difficulties faced, be thankful

No what matter, good or bad, we should always be grateful to God. Gratitude is an attitude that will increase our altitude in life.

It’s the Twenty Ninth day of the thanks-filled month of December. Thank God for virtually everything that comes your mind today. Spontaneously give a Him thanks


Shalom!

Made a Way: The Story Behind The Song

Made a way is a song written and sang by award winning artist Travis Greene in the year 2015. Many people knows the song but few actually know the story behind the song.

The doctors said the possibility of the baby’s survival is slim to none, and it was during this period when his wife was on bed rest for two months that he wrote the song. There was nothing else for them to hold on to but faith, and the good news is that as slim as the chance was, it didn’t break because faith held it together and today their baby boy is alive.  When Jesus was on His way to heal Jairus’s daughter and news came that things had gone from bad to worse, that the girl was dead. Jesus overheard and said, "Don't be upset. Just trust me...

Song: These Walls

You are good and do good;....  - Psalm 119:68  Few months back, I came across an inspiring song by Jason David who happens to be a pastor.  He was diagnosed with cancer. After a year-long fight with cancer that claimed much of his tongue, Pastor Jason David refuses to stop singing. "These Walls" is an original worship song he wrote that became his anthem as he fought through several surgeries, chemotherapy & radiation. For someone going through challenges; financial, health, marital, academic, whatever it may be, I pray this song will bless you - no matter what walls or mountains you may face, God is greater & God is good!  Below are the lyrics of the song: Verse: You are greater than these walls I'm circling  You are stronger than these army  I see You are bigger than these mountains that I faced And I will choose only to praise You.
