Thanksgiving Day 2018

“Be cheerful no matter what; pray all the time; thank God no matter what happens. This is the way God wants you who belong to Christ Jesus to live.”

‭‭1 Thessalonians‬ ‭5:16-18‬ ‭MSG‬‬

“in everything give thanks; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you.”

‭‭I Thessalonians‬ ‭5:18‬ ‭NKJV‬‬

IN EVERYTHING give thanks! Even in things that appear to be good or bad, for, in the end, there is no bad thing! All things work together for good.

“And we know that all things work together for good to those who love God, to those who are the called according to His purpose.”

‭‭Romans‬ ‭8:28‬ ‭NKJV‬‬

Some good things I am thankful for today:

• For the family including Chathothvallamkulamfamily
• For 33 years of professional life so far in three continents
• For the mind to receive a purpose greater than myself at this stage (waiting for it).

Thanks for ‘bad’ things:

• The Kerala Floods 2018 – we don’t know God’s purpose yet, but all things work together or good.
