Giving thanks

Today, people around the world are expressing their thanks to God 
for the many blessings in each of their lives. 


But... what about tomorrow? 
How many will stop and think of the things that mean so much to them?
How many will say a simple "thank you" for an every day item?
What about a word of thanks for a strong, healthy body?
How about gratefulness that God is still lending you breath?

Why do people cease to thank God for the little details that He has
 chosen specifically to bless us with? 

Are you ungrateful? Is your attention so focused elsewhere that
you choose not to notice the blessings of the King of kings?

I hope across the world we will daily lift our voices in praise and 
thanksgiving, as Christ daily pours His love and care upon us.

In everything give thanks, for this is
 God's will for you in Christ Jesus.
                                                      1 Thessalonians 5:18
