Our Scripture reading today is 1 Thessalonians 5:18, "In every thing give thanks: for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you."
There are many times when people will wonder about the will of God. What is God's will for my life? The verse we read this morning clearly tells us one truth about the will of God. As Christians, we are to give thanks in every thing. God loves us and He is in control and we should always give Him thanks. It is the will of God that we give thanks; therefore we know we can do it. There are times when it is not easy to give thanks. Even in those times, God's grace will sufficiently enable us to be thankful.
