Dear friend of the Steemit community. I am pleased to greet you and wish you an excellent day.
This time I want to share with you a message about developing the attitude of always thanking God.
It usually happens that when something in life goes well, then we immediately say: Thank you God for helping me! However, when the event is unfortunate, it is very difficult for us to thank God and we end up blaming God because he did not prevent the bad that happened to us.
You have to develop an attitude of being grateful to God for all the things that happen to us, good or bad. We have to put into practice what the apostle Paul says: "in everything give thanks, because this is the will of God for you in Christ Jesus." 1 Thessalonians 5:18.

The apostle Paul teaches the brothers of the Thessalonian church that God should be thanked for everything that happened, since it was simply the will of God in Christ Jesus.
Paul not only spoke in theory but also put it into practice.
In the days when Paul was incarcerated in the Philippian jail, he was not blaming anyone for what had happened to him or throwing a curse word against anyone, he was simply in prison praying and singing hymns to the Lord. Surely, if you had been in Pablo's place, you would have shouted a few angry shouts against those who beat him and put him in prison, but Pablo's attitude was one of simplicity and humility, leaving everything in the hands of God, without insulting anyone , but to thank God for everything that was happening to him.
Develop an attitude of gratitude toward God constantly and you will see good results in your life. Thanks to God can be expressed the way Paul did in prison. You can sing and pray in the midst of the storm and that gesture of adoration, God will take it as an action of thanks to Him.
Start today and your life will change forever. When the unpleasant moments come, you will already be ready in your heart to say: Thank you God, because I know that you are with me in this bitter drink of my life!
