BE GRATEFUL ALWAYS 

THE SEED

”Enter into His gates with thanksgiving and into His courts with praise…“ Psalms 100:4 NKJV

Gratitude is a feeling of appreciation, thanks, or respect especially to God. Today being the last day of this month, it can not be more appropriate to be grateful to our heavenly Father for his benefits received to date. Even if you think you have not received the request of your heart, the fact that you are alive means that God is working on your behalf. So today, start your day by praising Him with a thankful heart to God. That is God’s desire for us. You might as well be on the journey of life like the Apostle Paul. No one could eat for 14 days on the ship and just before sunrise, Apostle Paul urged everyone to eat to regain strength. Right in the storm, Paul took bread, gave thanks to God before the entire ship, broke the bread, and distributed it. The next day, all of them aboard made it safely to shore.

If Paul gave thanks not after the storm had passed, but right in the midst, we can give thanks in our storm as well.  Be assured that if you learn to praise God like the Apostle Paul did, caring less about the negative situations around you, you shall reach your destination in one piece.

BIBLE READINGS:  Acts 27:33-38

PRAYER: Lord Jesus, grant me the heart of gratitude in all situations of my life in Jesus’ Name.  Amen.
