Be Thankful

Rejoice evermore. Pray without ceasing. In every thing give thanks: for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you.
- I Thessalonians 5:16-18 KJV

We can thank God first...in every situation...Because every problem we encounter comes with His provision attached to it.God has a plan and a purpose for us. Not only that...but He works everything together for good for those who love Him.That promise is a deep well of provision for us to draw from. Whatever calamity life throws at us, God can use it for our blessing and our benefit. Think a little on that and you will see the goodness of God at work.
"And we know that God causes all things to work together for good to those who love God, to those who are called according to His purpose."- Romans 8:28 NAS. It is that attribute of God's nature that makes it so critical for us to come to a place of thanksgiving. By entering into His presence in the midst of the problem, He can act on our behalf. Our heart may be all over the place, but there is a central place of truth where we can gather in the goodness of God.........................Time to trust.
