Thanksgiving: Reasons For Thanksgiving - Part 5

#Thanksgiving Day 21

Reason For Thanksgiving

Giving thanks always and for everything to God the Father in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ - Ephesians 5:20

Another reason to give thanks to God for is your birth day. Do you know why? Because you are fearfully and wonderfully made in the image of God.

We all are born into this world to fulfill a purpose. There is no mistake about you been on earth. God chose you to fulfill a particular purpose. You got to thank God for that. Thank Him for the unique opportunity. 

Birthdays are yearly reminders of God’s faithfulness over you. Forget the stupid evolution theories; God created you in His own likeness.  

Be grateful for your birth No matter where  or when you are born. To be simple and thankful together, is a sure shot recipe for inner happiness for life. Like an innocent child who does not have to do anything to be happy, we can rejoice in life itself, in being alive.

You have thoughts and feelings, hopes and dreams, life purpose, goals and aspiration on this planet simply because you were born. You exist for a reason.

Be thankful for every little second to millisecond of your life.

As you grow older, Be grateful and be thankful


It’s the Twenty-First Day of December, a thanks-saturated month: Let your heart be full of gratitude. Be thankful for that special moment you were born into this world.


TGIF! 🤗

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 song was actually borne out of a personal testimony of Travis Greene. According to the artist, 'Made a Way' was written during an impossible situation. His pregnant wife’s water broke at 21 weeks, when pregnancy normally takes between 37-42 weeks. 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...

If Men Were God

He sends  rain  on the just and on the unjust. - Matthew 5:44 It's raining as I type this post and I remember the words of Jesus in Matthew 5:45 where he talks about  God sending the rain on both the just and unjust.

We see those who have sinned as been candidates of hell as if we haven't sinned before. One major problem of our society is discrimination. Even in church, we discriminate, we see that prostitute and we readily condemned her. We readily forget that as children of God, we don't just do good to good people, we are to do good to everybody. It doesn't matter how bad a person might be, you ...
