Romans 12:15 NIV

Rejoice with those who rejoice; mourn with those who mourn.

our llife in Christ is one of rejoicing

we have much to be thankful for

the momentary troubles of this world are exactly that

momentary and like mist in the sun

our concern has to be of the kingdom

let our lives be full of joy

it is a deep seated in our very spirit

we show rejoicing in every moment

we can do it because our God is bigger than the world

if God is for us then who can be against

Thanksgiving

sometimes we need to give thanks

this is not grace around the dinner table

it is a mindset, an attitude of knowing all things are from God

we give thanks for he gave us grace and mercy

we give thanks because we did not deserve it

opening our mouth opens our inner being
