Happy Friday! It is the end of a long week, but the Lord was step by step with us through every bit of it.

As I read this morning, my mind could not seem to settle down. I went from passage to passage looking for a message to share. And I kept coming back to Colossians 3:17:

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.

No matter how tired, frustrated, excited, energetic we feel, we are to do all things in the name of Jesus. But not only that, we must also do so in an attitude of thankfulness.

Thankfulness is not an easy attitude to have, especially when things go the wrong way. However, if we look at every action as an opportunity to learn and to honor Jesus, then we become thankful, because without Jesus, our lives would be truly miserable.

Today, while we go about our day, let us walk in an attitude of thankfulness as well as to purposefully work to honor Him.
