Be Thankful!

One of the biggest traps that we fall into is taking things for granted. "You don't know what you have until you lose it." So many people settle for mediocrity by treating God as a genie in a lamp to get them out of their horrible situations, but then never go above the "poverty line" where they're just a step away from another disaster. With such a small way of thinking, we're bound to repeat the cycle of living from horrible situation to horrible situation. Then, without ever really getting to know God, we treat him as the being responsible for these horrible things. "God must've needed my child in heaven more than I do here." "I guess God has a bigger plan by making me go through this divorce." "I got fired, but God's ways are higher than my ways so there must be something I needed to learn through getting evicted from my home."
God loves you and wants what's best for you! But if we are to see God for who He truly is and therefore who we are, we need to first change our perception of Him. This Thanksgiving, remember who God is, what He's done, and listen in to this week's episode on why we should be more thankful than we are right now.
