We are Thankful for all the many blessings in our lives, for answered prayers and the opportunities that the Lord gave us throughout the year to bring honor and glory to His name. Thankful for the strength that the Lord gave us as we went through various trials; thankful for a peace in our hearts through thick and thin, through tragedy, through struggles, through sadness and the loss of loved ones. We praise you Lord that you were with us every moment of a day, that we could be in your presence 24/7.
Colossians 3:15-17 'And let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts, to which indeed you were called in one body. And be thankful. Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly, teaching and admonishing one another in all wisdom, singing psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, with thankfulness in your hearts to God. And whatever you do, in word or deed, do everything in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through him.'
Let us evaluate our lives as we look back on 2014 and see if we have grown spiritually. Did we give God our best or were we preoccupied with worldly things? Did we give our time - spending quality time with the Lord in Bible study and prayer? Were we aware of His presence in our daily lives?
This life, as we know it here on Earth, is just a temporary home. We never know when the Lord shall return; therefore, we should always live each day as unto the Lord.
