Thankful?

Our students really enjoyed this wonderful video last night (as they laughed).  

Why did I show it?

I have been thinking about what I am teaching my kids about being thankful. 

I have noticed that our thankfulness focuses so much on what God does for US.  The benefits WE have in our lives.  The “blessings” that WE receive.

But what if WE didn’t have those things in our lives?  Would WE be thankful? 

So my questions is,”Are we really thankful if we are only thankful when times are good?” 

I know that God is so much bigger than that!

Should it not be enough that he died for us?

Be thankful…no strings attached.
