“Be thankful in all circumstances, for this is God’s will for you who belong to Christ Jesus.” 1Thessalonians 5:18 We should be thankful every day. Hard places and hard times are the best times to be thankful. Because that’s when we open our lives to God who is the only one that can bless and prosper us. He cannot give us what we will not receive. It’s easy to be grateful when life is good but it is necessary to be grateful during the tough times too. It is during the valleys that we grow. Be grateful and be blessed.
