Multitude Monday

Giving thanks is so relative to what we experience sometimes. I might be thankful for butternut squash, you might be thankful you don't have to eat it. But the point is it is all gratitude. And what is gratitude if we are not thankful to someone...for something? What is it, really? It is cool to be grateful, it is trendy, it is accepted, it is desired...but all for what?

"Every good and perfect gift is from above..." James 1:17

Every. good. gift.

I believe He knows what it takes to reach our core. What will spur us on to give thanks. To be truly grateful. He knows that hole in our soul. That one that only he can fill. And he fills it. Whether we know it or not. That overwhelming feeling of gratitude. It is all for Him. The one who creates. All good things.
