ThanksLiving

By David Casey

It doesn’t really seem like enough, does it? It seems that there should be more words to express to God how thankful we are to Him. I should be able to find them and then say them to Him but often times they escape me and what comes out is a simple “thanks”.

In reality, it’s not enough. In fact, God wants us to not only say how thankful we are but to live a life of thanksgiving. It reminds me of the verse in James 2 that tells us that our life of thanksgiving is lived out.  It says that our ‘thanksgiving” alone is not enough but rather it must be accompanied by deeds that demonstrate to God how we feel about Him.  I hope this season of thanksgiving turns into “thanksliving” for you and your family.   Let’s do that together!

By the way, what are you thankful for?
