The Power of Thank You. In everything give thanks; for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus. I Thessalonians 5:18 This summer has been hard! Trials and troubles have rolled in like waves in a stormy sea. Again and again, I have found myself overcome and overwhelmed. But, then. Then, I would remember the power of two small words. Thank You! "Thank You, Lord, that this is happening!" Thank You, Abba Father, that You are in control!" "Thank you, Papa God, that you are not surprised or shaken by this." "Thank You, dear Jesus that You are the King of kings and the Lord of lords." True confessions. A tweak in perspective. Declarations to the enemy of my soul. Time and time again, my sincere "thank you" released God's power within me to transform this weak and wavering woman back to a peace-filled and trusting child of God. My fear turned to faith. Worry to hope. Trouble to trust....
