    We cannot give thanks FOR all circumstances but we can IN all circumstances. God has a purpose in every storm, shipwreck, tragedy, disease, or whatever that comes upon His children. Giving thanks to God is meant for our good; it enriches our life.

    Paul was a man who suffered a great deal of pain and yet wrote, "Be joyful always; pray continually; give thanks in all circumstances, for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus." (I Thess 5: 16-18). For Paul to give us such an advice is amazing. • It shows that a Christian can give thanks ...read more

    If we have our minds centred in Christ, focussed on the things that please God, then we won't need a rule book. If God's word dwells in us the way our lives are hidden with Christ then we'll do things that please God automatically.

    Paul has just finished telling the Colossians to stay away from those who want to tie them down to human rules and regulations. He says these rules are of no use to you in controlling your human desires. He says “Why would you want to subject yourself to human regulations when Christ has died ...read more

    Ephesians 5:20 tells 1) When, 2) For what, 3) To whom & 4) How the Spirit–filled believer is to be thankful.

    People may have one of three possible attitudes about thanksgiving. 1) The first is that it is unnecessary.
