KEEP THIS IN MIND AND YOU’LL GIVE THANKS“And whatever you do or say, do it as a representative of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks through him to God the Father.” (Colossians 3:17 NLT)
We are richer than ninety percent of the world’s population. Someone said the following:
“Considering the standard of living of most of the world’s population, I am rich because I have the following material blessings:” (Bill Donahue).
God has blessed us abundantly. In addition to the material blessings for which we are grateful to Him, we do not need anything. We have work, a roof over our heads, food, a car to transport us, etc. We are also blessed to be children of God and to be saved, because we have His love, peace, a united family, our church, and are healthy, free, etc.
For that reason and more we are richer than ninety percent of the world’s population.
“Let the message about Christ, in all its richness, fill your lives. Teach and counsel each other with all the wisdom he gives. Sing psalms and hymns and spiritual songs to God with thankful hearts. 17 And whatever you do or say, do it as a representative of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks through him to God the Father” (Colossians 3:16-17 NLT)
Think about it:
What things are you grateful for with God?
How was your life before knowing the Lord?
