Whether it’s the widow with her mite, or
Zacchaeus with his revelation, both sought to honor God with what they had, out
of a grateful heart.
To find
one’s self on the road of thankfulness is to bring one into a wellspring gratefulness.
Gratefulness in turn can’t help but give back to the one you are grateful to. The
possibilities of giving are endless if our thankfulness has traveled the narrow
path into God’s heart; but becomes self-serving and short lived if we are the
objects of our gratitude.
In His hands
He takes our fish sandwiches and feeds thousands, our stick and gives millions
a drink. He defeats terrorizing armies because we sing; He drops a giant
because we know He will do it through us.
We can
do anything with a thankful heart!
Who is
the object of our thankfulness? Do you want a brisk walk around the human
block? Or do you want an adventure into the heart of God?
