Dear Friends,
I always try and have an “attitude of gratitude” each and every day. It’s so easy to fall into the trap of complaining about circumstances and situations, many of which are out of our control. It really is a control issue most of the time isn’t it? If we can find something to be thankful for in every situation, then much of our complaining would cease. Be grateful and get closer to God. Amen! Love, scott

Let Thankfulness Temper All Your Thoughts. A thankful mind-set keeps you in touch with Me. I hate it when My children grumble, casually despising My sovereignty. Thankfulness is a safe-guard against this deadly sin. Furthermore, a grateful attitude becomes a grid through which you perceive life. Gratitude enables you to see the Light of My Presence shining on all your circumstances. Cultivate a thankful heart, for this glorifies Me and fills you with Joy.
1 Corinthians 10:10
10And do not grumble, as some of them did—and were killed by the destroying angel.
Hebrews 12:28-29 28Therefore, since we are receiving a kingdom that cannot be shaken, let us be thankful, and so worship God acceptably with reverence and awe, 29for our “God is a consuming fire.”
