Thankfulness

This week God has been challenging me to be Thankful in all things. At first I was challenge through my friend Jon that was learning to rejoice in pain and hardships, and looking at what it means to really rejoice with our lives. Next a close friend Scott, challenged me through his life to learn through suffering, cause Scott suffers in way beyond what I know to be suffering. This brings me to my thought on thankfulness. As we rush in to this week of turkeys and mash potatoes let us not forget to be thankful, cause if we loose our hearts of thankfulness I truly believe we will miss the views of the Father. Thankfulness is a lens by which we get views of God. If it's not looked through I fear that we will loose sight of Him. Heather and I just had a long talk with a friend, 3 and half hours long, about God, hell, life, and so much more. By the end he came to a conclusion that if God really did care or exist why doesn't he just give us a glimpse of himself, something that would say "Hey I'm really here". I think our friend has lost sight of being thankful for the beauty that surrounds us. This week lets not use reasoning or logic to explain things in our lives, lets just be thankful for them, and maybe we'll see something new.
