Have You Given God Thanks For His Son That Died So You Could Have Eternal Life or Are You Just Thanking God For The Stuff That Come With Life? We Should Be Thankful For The Stuff But We Need To Make Sure We Say Thank You For The Life Jesus Died For Us To Have!

 What is it that you are most thankful for today?   Is it the "stuff" you have accumulated in life or is it the "life" that God has given you through the death of His Son?   It is my prayer today that you are MOST thankful for the eternal life that you have been given.   The stuff is a byproduct of the blessings of God but it is the eternal life that you have been given that ensures your destiny.    

 

We have to understand that there is life beyond the here and the now.   Many people get caught up on what they have right now.   That's okay, as long as, what they are getting caught up on is the fact that they have a Savior who was born, beaten, bled, died, and rose again so that they could have eternal life.   We always have to remember, the "stuff" that comes with life, like the house, the car, the job, the clothes, etc. is just that "stuff".   It wears out and has to be replaced over time but the life that God gave us through the birth, death, and resurrection of His Son, Jesus, doesn't have to be replaced or done over again.   God did it, Jesus died, and it is done.   The promises of God to us are sealed through and by the blood of Jesus.   

 

So as you give thanks today and every day.  Thank God for His goodness, His grace, His love, and His mercy.   Thank Him not just for the stuff you have but thank Him for the life you have been given.
