GIVE THANKS ALWAYS

Rejoice in the Lord alway: and again I say Rejoice'. (Philippians 4:4)

Thanksgiving is the attitude of a productive life. No duty is more urgent than that of returning thanks. William Ward spoke wisely, 'There are three enemies of personal peace: regret over yesterday's mistakes, anxiety over tomorrow's problems, and ingratitude for today's blessing'. The person who isn't thankful for what he has isn't like to be thankful for what he's going to get. Ingratitude never ends.

Know that you are blessed. If you can't be satisfied with what you've reached, be thankful for what you've escaped. For example, no matter the kind of house you are staying in at the moment, you will not prefer it to the best hospital in your city.

Giving thanks to God brings about multiplication. Jesus when given five loaves of bread and two fishes to feed five thousand men never complained, instead He gave thanks and a miracle happened. The miracle transpired because He gave thanks. Ingratitude blinds one's eyes from seeing what he has, even when the answers to his prayers are in what he has.

VALUE FOR TIME

To everything, there is a season and a time to every purpose under heaven (Ecclesiastes 3:1) Our entire life is measured by time. Your success and achievement are directly proportional to the time invested therein. To the one that is a medical doctor, for instance, it means that he has invested 5 or 6 years of his time in learning and acquiring knowledge to practice as a medical doctor. It, therefore, means that he traded time for the skill. We have a period here on earth to fulfill our purpose. It would be suicidal to attempt to waste it for we have but one life.  Helpful Topic: Motivational Quotes For Women.

Move On

" ...: _but this one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind, and reaching forth unto those things which are before, I press toward calling of God in Christ Jesus_ ". Philippians 3:13-14 The past is always going to be the way it was, so stop trying to change it. Your future contains more happiness than any past you remember. Believe strongly that the best is yet to come. Today we remember Paul more as an Apostle of Christ than a persecutor of Christians. He never had the opportunity to be with Jesus physically but he had more revelation of Him than the other Apostle that was with Jesus. He was never ashamed and went about preaching the Gospel of Christ. Each time he remembers his past, he will try to forget and move on. "... this one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind..." (Philippians 3:13-14). God through Apostle Paul performs great miracles. God is very good at changing ugly situations to pleasant situations if you believe He can do
