You must depend
on Christ only, drawing life and strength from him. Just as you were taught the
truth, continue to grow stronger in your understanding of it. And never stop
giving thanks to God.
{Colossians 2:7}
When we are rooted in Christ and in the Word, our hearts are filled with Thanksgiving. When we have understood the truth of the Gospel, we will always be appreciative of everything we have and do not have. There will never be room for self-pity, negativity or lack. Why? Because He supplies all of our needs according to His riches and glory. If we do not have, it's simply because we do not need at the present moment. We do not lack because the Lord is our Shepard and we have all that we need. He is our Provider; therefore, we should never stop giving thanks. Never stop!

Our subconscious mind, which is working constantly in the background, processes thoughts at about 1200 to 1400 words per minute. What are you constantly thinking about? What are you infiltrating your mind with on a daily basis? Take a moment to dwell on a simple; yet powerful thought, you are blessed and God has nothing but the best for you! You do not lack anything; you are a child of the Most High! Forget all of the negativity, forget about the things you do not have and focus on the positives and on what you do have. If you dwell on that for ten minutes, it’s like being told 14,000 times that"You are blessed!" and not only that, but then your brain goes on a journey to find the evidence to affirm that thought.
Stop what you are doing right now and take two minutes to look for, think about and count all your blessings, all the good things that you have in your life right now and give Thanks! That's almost 3,000 words of "good things" running through your brain. Practice this daily. Make it a habit to continuously reflect on the good versus the bad. Positivity will always take you further than clutters of negativity. What kind of thoughts are you filling your mind with? You have a choice today to make a turnaround. Never stop giving thanks because you are overwhelmingly blessed. The more we give thanks, the more we will live a happy and blessed life.
Today, I encourage you to Never Stop .... Giving Thanks!
Be Encouraged, Be Blessed!
