What are you thankful for? If you have to take time to think of something, you may not be really that thankful. Thankfulness should flow off our tongue easily and quickly!
Think thankfully is a way of life! Every American and most in developed countries should be thankful. We are not entitled to what we have but we are blessed beyond compare! I don’t think I would be wrong to say that 99% of Americans are wealthier than most people of underdeveloped countries! Research proves me right.
My challenge today is an obvious one. We need to be thankful. The Bible tells us, “...whatever is pure or lovely, think on these things....” (Philippians 4:8) Why? Our minds often trick us. We can think ourselves into negative behaviors. We can convince ourselves that we don’t have enough. We are less content!
This Thanksgiving, we should think about the bounty of blessings we have! God has blessed us without exception! If you are reading this article, you are fortunate enough to have technology and likely a computer that most don’t!
So, think thankfully! Be content and realize how blessed we are!
