We have so much to be thankful for in this world. 2 Corinthians 9:12-15 "This service that you perform is not only supplying the needs of the Lord's people but is also overflowing in many expressions of thanks to God. ... Thanks be to God for his indescribable gift!" When you give to support the Gospel of Christ you need to think of those this message impacts.

We have a lot to be thankful about. Give thanks in all things for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus. We look in the world and don't see a lot of thankfulness and I think that's a lack of contentment. But we can take the lead and show an answer for the hope that is within us. 2 Corinthians 8 says to "excel in the grace of giving". This is about participating in the divine nature of God. As we grow in the grace of God we will see that desire to give bubble up within us.

John reminds his readers to abide in Christ and to know him. And in knowing the truth about Jesus you will know the truth about God. "See what kind of love the Father has given to us, that we should be called children of God; and so we are." 1 John 3:1 This all starts with the love of God. If you're struggling with your identity, this verse is for you. Take a stand on this verse. The love of the Father has made you a child of God. As a child of God you will be filled with assurance, gratefulness, and thankfulness.

Are we hearing the pure grace of God or are we hearing the grace of God with additives? If we start to to add to grace we end up with nothing. Galatians 5:6 "For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision nor uncircumcision counts for anything, but only faith working through love." It's not the fruit of the law, it's the fruit of the Spirit.
