Giving Thanks in All Things \o/ Jesus !!

✞ Let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts, since as members of one body you were called to peace. And be thankful. Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly as you teach and admonish one another with all wisdom, and as you sing psalms, hymns and spiritual songs with gratitude in your hearts to God. And whatever you do, whether in word or deed, do it all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through Him.✞
~  Colossians 3:15-17

Dear friend,

Have you ever noticed that some Bible verses seem easier to memorize than to put into practice? One that immediately comes to mind is this one ...

✞ In everything give thanks; for this is God's will for you in Christ Jesus ✞ ~1 Thess. 5:18. 

That word "everything" is challenging because there are situations when we do not feel particularly grateful. There are troubles we face that negatively affect every aspect of life, stealing joy and taking our focus off the Savior. 

Scripture encourages us always to voice our gratitude to the Lord, no matter what we're facing. Why? Because when we focus on God instead of the problem, we realize, He's already given us victory. You may have to remind yourself repeatedly, but you will benefit greatly from the peace that awaits.

God bless you in the days and weeks ahead as you 'prepare' your heart to 'receive' the Holy Gift of Jesus once again this holiday season. He can fill any void in your life, and He can mend and heal a broken life .. Remembering what Jesus has done for all God's children by keeping Christ in Christmas.

Prayers and blessings,
Hiker Dan シ

Amen Dan!!

Very powerful message. How much as children of God, will learn to give thanks to our Lord in everything, as we are growing in Christ Jesus.

Today, this scripture spoke to my heart. Apostle Paul said it very well to how I feel;

When I was a child, I talked like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child. When I became a man, I put the ways of childhood behind me. For now we see only a reflection as in a mirror; then we shall see face to face. Now I know in part; then I shall know fully, even as I am fully known.

And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love. ~1 Corinthians 13:11-13


Jesus is our living water and the bread of life. He is our Potter and we are His clay, He is shaping us and molding us and making us His very own. Satan has no place in our lives, as he always tries to rob our joy in Jesus.


Dear Jesus, I thank you, that you died in our place, so we can learn to live, as you are living in our hearts. Thank you Jesus, for picking us up, when we stumble and fall, and you have us walking again. Thank you for your unconditional love, because without that, we really can't live, and discover the true beauty of Who you really are. You are our hidden treasure, through all of our circumstances, bad and good, if we only look for that treasure, there you are. Thank you Jesus, for defeating Satan, when you died at that cross, because now, we have true hope, as we journey on, in your grace, mercy, forgiveness and your love, as you put in our hearts, to tell the good news about Who you really are. Most of all Jesus, thank you for being our Lord and Savior. You are the Prince of Peace, and we want you to rule in our hearts, for eternity. We love you Jesus!! In your name I pray this, AMEN!!

God bless you my friend,
Love in Christ, Nilda シ

    Hiker Notes
     by Hiker Dan

    I am a writer for the Christ Spirit in me and I make videos put on my heart that are inspired by the indwelling Holy Spirit. All I share is dedicated to my Awesome Lord and Savior. May my motivation always be to share the love God has for all His children with the world as I am being guided on my personal journey hiking with Jesus.
