"God is a giver of daily bread, so we ought to be a giver of daily thanks". That's what the preacher said yesterday and then he went on to say, "It's a great insult for the creature to receive substance from the hand of the Creator and not say thank you.". All of God's people ought to at least say "Yummie" to our God even if we forget to say thank you. Agree?

Yesterday I heard a message where the pastor said we live in "a freaked-out world" but we should expect the world to become like this (Matthew 24:4-12). He then said "but don't worry, God is still in control and He can be trusted". Good, isn't it?

Yesterday's message was about God as a giver of strength. It was taken from Philippians 4:10-20. In a sentence summary we said that in every aspect of our weakness God come through with sufficient strength for our need. This passage reminds us that God doesn't "zap us" but rather uses the Scriptures and the saints to strengthen us. For a follow-up to the message make a list of the times God has strengthen you and how He used the Scriptures and /or the saints to do it. When you have make your list thank Him for it and share one of those time with everyone who reads this sequel. Remember we are able to give thanks because God is a good, great, and generous giver!

Everlasting life,God's gift to us. Yesterday I said that the greatest gift we could ever receive is the one we need the most. Yet all of us can remember times when we never thought that we needed salvation, the new birth. Yet God still made sure the gift was purchased and presented to us. How thankful we are today that someone, somewhere, somehow told us how much God loved us and had a gift for us to receive. All that to bring us to the sequel. Will we continue the offer and present the gift to someone this week?
