"For everything created by God is good, and nothing should be rejected if it is received with thanksgiving."
1st Timothy 4:4
EVERYTHING GOD HAS CREATED IS GOOD!!!!
Think of the blessings we so easily take for granted: Life itself; preservation from danger; every bit of health we enjoy; every hour of liberty and freedom; the ability to see, to hear, to speak, to think - and just think! ALL OF THIS COMES FROM THE HAND OF GOD!
Instead of ignoring God, we must praise and thank Him several times each day. Then, with gratitude in our hearts, we can face the day's challenges with the strength and power only HE can provide.
When we forget to slow down and say "Thank You" to our creator, we rob ourselves of His presence, His peace, and His joy. (Rev. Billy Graham)

I know this is so true. In the next postings on my blog I am going to share more about this, including some personal lessons I have learned . How about sharing with me? How has God blessed you and your life because you've taken the time to slow down and thank Him and praise Him and recognized Him for who He is. Please share.
