In Everything? Give Thanks?

I love finding the words "thanksgiving" or "thanks" in God's Word. I haven't studied how many times they are in there, but I always smile when those words pop up in unexpected passages. One of the most famous verses I know about thanksgiving says, "In everything, give thanks." Wow, sometimes that's hard to swallow. Everything means everything. I'm pretty sure it means the same thing in the Greek. My plan for this blog is to post thoughts about thanksgiving, especially when giving thanks doesn't seem like an obvious option. I hope you will be encouraged to thank God, regardless of your circumstances. He is still God and He wants the very best for you and me. That's something to be thankful for.
