Overflowing With Thankfulness
The more we live in thankfulness to God for all things, under all circumstances and in all situations, the more we are able to see His works.
Thanking shows we trust His judgment even though the situation is stressful. Thanking shows willingness to grow through undesirable situations.
Thankfulness opens eyes to what God is teaching allowing us to be grounded in Him. Grounding brings about faith so that any doubt of His promises will be removed.
In this season of Thanksgiving may we be truly thankful.

Give Thanks This Thanksgiving
In the story of Jesus feeding 5,000 men (plus uncounted women and children), Jesus, savior of the world, was thankful to God before the distribution and eating of the five small barley loaves and two small fish. Scripture says He simply “gave thanks.”

Jesus Offers Thanks–BEFORE Blessing Appears!
Offering Thanks Works.
Gathered together in a grassy area on the shores of the Sea of Galilee, not far from the town of Bethsaida in Israel, Jesus fed 5,000 men. The wondrous deed was preformed spontaneously, accomplished on-the-spot after Jesus looked into the heavens and gave thanks. Though Jesus’ close group of Twelve were at His side, they had no idea of the miracle that was about to happen.
The large crowd of 5,000 (total doesn’t reflect women and children in attendance) was traveling on foot from nearby towns as they followed Jesus, eager to listen as He shared God’s message.
Jesus, whose name means Savior, considered the encompassing crowd as sheep without a shepherd. Because of this, the Savior had compassion on them while lovingly healing their sick and speaking about the kingdom of God.
