BE THANKFUL TO MAKE YOUR TANK FULL
1 Thessalonians 5:18 – No matter what happens, always be thankful, for this is God’s will for you who belong to Christ Jesus (TLB).
Read: Psalms 103:2
When the pilgrims landed in Plymouth, Massachusetts, in 1621, they struggled through the first winter, but when summer came, the people were happy because they had learned a lot. Consequently, they planted seeds in the pastures and harvested good crops. The pilgrims also effortlessly hunted wild turkeys and deer and caught plenty of fish and lobsters in the rivers. The summer has been perfect, so the people wanted to celebrate and thank God for the provision.
The Governor General said, “Let us gather our first harvest and celebrate.” “Indeed, let us choose a day to thank the Lord for His blessings and invite our friends to rejoice with us”, said another well-respected elder. These pilgrims’ heart of gratitude are what brought about the annual “Thanksgiving Day” in the United States of America.
Beloved, as seen in today’s Bible text, endeavour to make every day a moment of thanksgiving to God. This is the last month of 2024; up until now, God has kept you safe and sound. Is God not worthy of praise? He does! Therefore, you will count your blessings so far in the year and give quality thanks to the Lord Almighty. This is because it is not wealth that makes a person rich, but the grace of God to witness yet another day.
