 A  Word from Pastor Garrett

Word from Pastor Garrett

From Pastor’s Desk

THANKFULNESS

Matthew Henry, the famous Bible scholar, was once accosted by thieves and robbed of his billfold. He wrote these memorable words in his diary: 

"Let me be thankful, first, because I have never been robbed before; second, although they took my billfold, they did not take my life;

third, because, although they took my all, it was not that much; and fourth, because it was I who was robbed and not someone else."

The Apostle Paul learned the meaning of true thanksgiving, even in the midst of great adversity. Earlier, when he had been imprisoned in Rome, Paul wrote, “Sing and make music in your heart to the Lord, always giving thanks to God the Father for everything, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ” (Ephesians 5:19-20, NIV).

Think of it: Always giving thanks for everything—no matter the circumstances! Thanksgiving for the Apostle Paul was not a once-a year celebration, but a daily reality that changed his life and made him a joyful person in every situation. 

Thanksgiving—the giving of thanks—to God for all His blessings should be one of the most distinctive marks of the believer in Jesus Christ. We must not allow a spirit of ingratitude to harden our heart

and chill our relationship with God and with others.

Nothing turns us into bitter, selfish, dissatisfied people more quickly than an ungrateful heart. And nothing will do more to restore contentment and the joy of our salvation than a true spirit of thankfulness.

Today, too, ingratitude and thanklessness are far too common. Children forget to thank their parents for all that they do. Common courtesy is scorned. We take for granted the ways that others help us. Above all, we fail to thank God for His blessings.

Ingratitude is a sin, just as surely as is lying or stealing or immorality or any other sin condemned by the Bible. One of the Bible’s indictments against rebellious humanity is that “although they knew God, they neither glorified him as God nor gave thanks to him”

(Romans 1:21, NIV). An ungrateful heart is a heart that is cold toward God and indifferent to His mercy and love. It is a heart that has forgotten how dependent we are on God for everything.

New Life, let us continually be thankful unto God for everything and in everything. God still opens doors, heals, and delivers. Fixes brokenness, mends relationships and saves marriages. If you are

looking for a giving though of thankfulness, remember, the night doesn’t last, there is a expiration date to all your troubles. So, give thanks for the Lord is GOOD and great and greatly to be praised.
