"And as day was about to dawn, Paul implored them all to take food, saying, 'Today is the fourteenth day you have waited and continued without food, and eaten nothing. Therefore I urge you to take nourishment....' And when he had said these things, he took bread and gave thanks to God in the presence of all; and when he had broken it, he began to eat."
Acts 27:33-36
Paul's lifestyle exhibited a spirit of thanks, even in the worst of circumstances. The letter to the Philippians is a paean of rejoicing and thanks, even though he was in chains. And in other letters he exhorts Believers to give thanks in all things (Ephesians 5:20; I Thessalonians 5:18). I think his thankfulness was a natural expression of his love for Jesus and his faith in God.
Today's Thought: Faith in God's care will produce a spirit of thanksgiving.
Have a thankful day. Love you.
